Pcos here. I am on metformin which helps to reduce miscarriage rate as it controls insulin levels.  My first three pregnancies ended in miscarriage- 4 th one started metformin and finally had a gorgeous little girl( although she was premature probably from all the miscarriages). This time on metformin again , vitamin d( we pcos women tend to have low vitamin d), progesterone, fish oil, folic acid 5 mg and prenatals. Also doing acupuncture once a week, anyone on metformin?

I have pcos and am currently 6 months with my second child. No complications with my first or this one either. :) don't stress. Just eat healthy and exercise when you can.

I had pcos. I am currently 6 mths pregnant.  The only thing that I would have checked is your progesterone levels. I suffer from low progesterone levels and had a few miscarriages before they figured it out. I have taken progesterone supplements from the start of this pregnancy and my levels have been great with no complications :-)
