Fed Up with Metfromin

I found out I have PCOS 3months ago I have been on Metformin for 3 months now and I have still had no period (last period was October 2013) should I call and get on Provera? can you take Metformin an Provera together? what about Clomid? Me and my husband are just so ready for a baby we have been trying for 2 years.

I strongly suggest you get on Provera- it's done wonders for me in the past. I recently got back on it about 2 weeks ago, and my cycle is on now as we speak- I also take 500mg Metformin and I'll start my Clomid on Monday. I haven't had any luck with getting pregnant yet, but hopefully soon I'll be blessed with a healthy pregnancy... BTW: I also have PCOS and the doctor has assured me that I can get pregnant I'll just need some help... Good Luck to you and I'll keep you posted.

I have been on provera in the past and it induced a period... with metformin it took a month or two to kick in but since starting it in 2009 I haven't missed a period becauae of the metformin. I have been unable to get pregnate since 2004 amd had my first dr appt yesterday I am 8weeks pregnate. Keep the faith it can happen.

Im 29 and had my 1 st child almost 8 years ago. Haven't been able to conceive afterwards. Went through 2 miscarriages,  went to the doctors and been diagnosed with PCOS. My husband and I also had been trying for over 2 years. The first doctor I had told me that I wouldn't be able ro conceive anymore children so I wanted a second opinion. My second doctor put me on Provera first then once I had my cycle, I was on 50mg of Clomid and got pregnant first round. This is our miracle baby. So I would try Clomid and see how it works. Best wishes and prayers your way!!
