I'm on 50mg of clomid this cycle and 1000mg of metformin... this is the first month I've had either...but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that it works for me!

I took 8 rounds of 100mg clomid then took 3 mths to myself with no meds.  The RE then put me on metformin 3 times a day and synthroid (my thyroid level was in normal range but on the high end) and within 1 mth i was preggo!!   I am now 15 wks.   Good luck to you

I have been on Metformin 1000 mg twice a day for about 3 years because of diabetes and PCOS. I also started taking clomid 50 mg 4 months ago. Unfortunately the combo has not yet worked for us. I did though this past month produce 2 follicles rather then 1, so I am hopeful that it just takes some time. Best of luck!

I was on metformin 1500mg for about 8 months before I got pregnant.  But my first cycle with clomid and metformin and IUI I got pregnant.  The metformin made me ovulate more (3 follicles) so I think it upped the chance.  I used clomid and metformin w/o IUI and had no success.  I'd give the metfomin a few months before you try something new - it will start working!
