Wow. Fertility Friend just gave me crosshairs. On cd 16. I haven't had anything lower than cd 24 in the past year, and that was a fluke. Otherwise, it's firmly in the 30s. Met cut my ovulation time in half, and at that point I'd only been on a 500 mg dose for a week. Plus, it's a healthy looking chart.

Can Met really work that fast? Maybe I was simply relaxed because I figured that eventually Met would work, maybe, sometime in the future...? Because this is crazy fast. What do you think: unintentional relaxation or the miracle that is Met?

(I also realize that I am very lucky; I only seem to have a mild form of PCOS: I do still ovulate. But did anyone ever have AF come on this fast after taking Met?)

It worked pretty quickly for me, too. I also think that Met helped reduce some of the ttc stress. It was cheap and I knew I could keep taking it. There wasn't all the pressure with the other drugs.

Im hopeing it works fast for me after my first af! I was on 500mg last week. and now this week is 1000mg. next week will be 1500mg until firther notice. Im also on provera i just finished the last (10th) 2 days ago so we will see. I was on provera in the past also and it worked well for me. I was also on clomid. it didnt quit work but started to towards the end of my insurance. But now is a new fresh start and my new doc says if all goes well on the provera and met then she will be giving me clomid

It worked that way for me as well. I started taking Met in the early summer of 05, and was pregnant in August. It immediately got me onto a normal cycle, with ovulation right around cd14-16. I was thrilled.

Hope you are seeing a BFP really soon.

The first month I took met (500 mg daily), I had a beautiful cycle, complete with ovulation on day 14!! I didn't get pregnant (but DH has issues as well, which we didn't know about at the time), but I was amazed that it worked so fast.

I really hope I have as good of luck with the met as some of you ladies! I've been temp charting since Feb. and have yet to get my FF crosshairs. I started met last week, I'm really hoping it does the trick to get me Oing again.

Interestingly enough I started Met and had a period 9 days after my induced Provera period. Talk about AF coming on fast! The doc didn't even know why it happened. I hope that this month's cycle will be different...day 8 and counting. Thanks for giving all of us hope! I too have mild PCOS symptoms but unfortunately my worst symptom is ovulation

Congratulations on your AF! And let's see what happens with the Met. I'm still stunned. PLUS, I have no acne on my face any more. My skin is a smooth as a baby's bottom. This med is crazy.

I'm not TTCing at the moment; I'm trying to get a contract as a teacher in the fall (just starting out) and I can't TTC until November in order to last the full year. I was just trying to get my cycle together by then. But good luck to everyone else trying for a BFP!
