SO I had my blood work done (day 3)....
I did a two hour glucose tolerance test with glucose and insulin levels=all levels perfect!
cholesterol=perfect
FSH=perfect
testosterone=perfect

so..
LH=very high (68)

My doctor will not put me on metformin based on my labs. I am a healthy weight.

Should I find a doctor that will put me on met?

I didn't respond to clomid or femara...so now on to injectables

my wife is in a similar situation as you it seems. today we got her GLU results and the level seems very good.

The result is 4.9 mmol/l which should converted be 88.2 mg/dl

Her LH is three times as high as her FSH level. On Friday we will get the result of the thyroids test back.

Her weight is also normal. Since she was a teenager she got irregular periods and since we are tracking it(which is not long though) she is not ovulating.

She was now prescribed the pill Diane-35 for one month (which helps to lower Androgens) and will do further tests when she stops taking it.

I hope someone with more knowledge could give some advice.
