Never been diagnosed. My periods are irregular and I am overweight and my doctor seems to think this will help. Just wondering if anyone has gotten pregnant taking metformin alone. And how long will it take for metformin to work. Im a little confused on how metformin can help me get pregnant, so I could use a little info from others. Thanks! |
hi erica, welcome to this site. u can feel free to come to chat too, where u can ask others questions....
i am also on met only. it got my periods back. doc thinks its gona work for me. and i hope that it works to get me preg . i got very sick on it for 6 months, but i stick to it as i knew that i dont have anyother option. i m on met for 7 months. i still did not have my periods yet, so plan to take HPT in few days....
i have also started acupuncture as i heard that it helps infertility, so i m doing this with met and also go to chiro n get adjustments done.... i hope that i dont have to take any other medicine as i fear severe side effects.....
u can also chart basel body temperature. it will help u understand ur body and also help u to see when you ovulate......
i hope this helps
