Default how long after AF after taking Metformin?

How long after your first AF after starting Met did you ovulate, with no other meds (Clomid, etc.)? The next cycle? A few cycles later? Longer? Never?

I know everyone is different, I'm just wondering what everyone's experience was.

I think I O'd the next cycle. I conceived the 2nd cycle, so I know I O'd then. I do O on my own, though. It just isn't regular.

Have you had AF yet since starting Met without taking provera?

For me, the thing that worked was upping my Met dose to 2550 AND adding Clomid to the mix. I ovulate with just the Met, but for some reason, I didn't conceive until also adding the Clomid.

Hi gals. I O'd 1st cycle on Met, and even conceived my DD! i have never O'd on my own. My cycle on Met, I started met after no sign of AF coming for about 6 weeks since my last AF. Started Met, O'd within 2 weeks. I was even on a low dose. Only reason I took HPT was because I wanted provera to end my cycle. I really didn't believe I O'd because how could it work so fast!!
