Thanks for all your info girls...i feel like i am going insane at the moment looking every little thing up online! I even had a dream last night that i had alopecia as a result of this syndrome! I think i may need to lay off the research for a few days!
I took the plunge and asked my doctor to prescribe me metformin. I have been taking it 4 days, 500mg once a day. Am tolerating it pretty well with only mild feelings of nausea sometimes so i think i will up it to 2 tablets a day (1000mg) after a week as suggested by my doctor.
I actually started to get ovulation symptoms the day before i went to my doctor (slippery CM, sore boobs) so perhaps something was about to happen this month anyway. Oh and my temps have been 0.2 degrees celsius higher the last 3 days but still pretty low at 36.4 (i think thats low?) The O Symptoms started on day 82 of my cycle but surely that doesnt mean i will have to wait another 80 days to bleed?! Does anyone know if you can get slippery CM without ovulation? I am thinking it may be just a sign that i am about to bleed. I hope it happens soon as i really dont want to have to take progestins to induce it.
Thank you everyone for your invaluable information it really does help keep me sane!
Hugs
