My first concern is the side effects of Metformin and how long do I take it until it makes me regular? Has anyone had luck with this medicine and conceiving????? |
I am also TTC. I've been on 1500mg of Metformin since August. I've only had one 'natural' menstrual cycle. Although I have not let me cycles go past 35 days since ultrasounds showed no developing follicles. I've read that it has been very effective for many people though. I haven't ever been tested to see if I'm even Insulin Resistant. I seem to lack some of the classic symptoms - my body mass index is normal but I sure do crave the carbs.
I've tried Clomid and Repronex (FSH) injections with no luck. Now, we're taking a month off. Like you, I'm trying to learn from other's experience. I just keep praying that we will be blessed with a baby. I do anything or try any remedy to make this happen!
