How to beat the odds and become a mother?

I am not gonna lie i will be 29 next month and never been pregnant. I am worried i will never have a child. Over the past years its always the same thing. Blood test to see if i am capable of concieving. Blood test come back great. Due to irregular menstraul cycles i have been placed on b.c.p. and metformin to regulate. Once regulated there should be other measures taken right? Am i not mentioning the correct words to further the process? All my friends kids are graduating elementary and i feel a certain type of way. I feel as though i have nothing to look forward to. I come home to my cat...weird! I am waiting for a miracle to happen but it seems as though i will never get that. I feel cursed. Any suggestions?

Hi!
If you were my patient, I would advise you that the next step for you may be Clomid or Femara. The Metformin may regulate your cycles by itself, or you may need some medications to help boost ovulation--such as the ones above.  IF you start having regular periods you will want to check ovulation predictors and a progesterone level to confirm that you are indeed ovulating--You must ovulate to conceive.
Good luck!
