hi there, i got diagnosed with the exact same on 9-11. i am on metformin 500mg, but i just take 1 at night for starting off and then clomid 100mg for 5 days. i have only taken 2 mets so far and its given me horrible diarrhea (tmi) but yikes its bad! i was 6 days late as well.
i hope that the metformin helps us both. i bought a diabetes for dummies book and it says it has a chapter in it about diabetes and infertility ....not read it yet. too depressing!
best of luck to you!

I haven't found that my PCOS has made my periods longer or shorter. I also have endometriosis though but my cycles usually run 28-32 days. I've had two RE's say that the recommend taking the Metformin through the first trimester then stop.
I have PCOS too. I was on 850mg once a day. When I was 7 wks, OB said to stop. Since then I had a series of blood tests, and sugar level has been normal.
i have a question re: PCOS..does it make your cycles longer..or af late?
Hi,
I believe it is ok to take metamorfin in early pregnancy - actually Drs recommend that one takes it until the 12th week. It even helps regulating your hormones thus reducing chances of miscarriege. I am 8 weeks pregnant and i am taking it.
Best of luck!
