Default different doses

Hey there. I am taking metformin and clomid together...different doses (500 mg of met and 100 mg of clomid) (im not insulin resistant) This is round 5 (waiting to see if I ovulated this cycle) but I have ovulated the 3 previous cycles on this dosage. Still hoping for a bfp.

I was on 2,000 mg of met + 50 mg of Clomid when I conceived my son. Also was being monitored by my RE w/ monthly ultrasounds and received an HCG trigger shot to time ovulation. Our third cycle of this protocol was the lucky one.

I didn't have any s/e (w/ either Clomid or Met) and produced 2 mature follies each cycle of Clomid. . .so it definitely worked well for me. I'm not IR either.

Best of luck!

I was on 1500mg of met for 3 months. The second round of clomid (100mg) with an hcg trigger worked for me!! Best of luck to you!

Angry Clomid and Met?? Overmedicated?

I am writing at a very frustrated time in my PCOS! I have been on 1000mg Met since July 2005 and have stayed IR and not Oing. I fluctuate with periods, AF will come in stong and the next month just leave a spot! My DH is just as frustrated as I am. The only thing the Met has done is lower my testosterone, which my endocrinologist says- "it is doing its main job"! However, I get disappointed when I see what Met has done for other cysters TTC and it has done very little for me. My gyno invites the suggestion of getting on Clomid, but my pride is getting in the way b/c I would like to conceive being on as little meds as possible. I guess I am still shocked that I would ever have to be on meds to get preg. and don't want to add another medication that just might let me down in the long run!

I don't mean to throw a pity party, just letting it out! Thanks for reading!!

Hello ladies. I am new to Clomid and I am just trying to gain as much insight about it as possible.

I was diagnosed in 12/04 with PCOS and have been on Met since 1/05. I started at 1500mg but I am now on 1700mg for the past 6 months. AF comes every month and I do ovulate. I had a painful HSG done in early December, and found out that I had at least one clear tube. My bowel was obstructing the view of my right one so they couldn't get a clear picture. Plus my uterus is tilted slightly so the fun begins. I will take Clomid from CD 5-9 and BD 19, 21, and 23 to go and have my bloodwork done on the 27th of this month to check P4 levels. I am hoping that I won't have to go too many rounds of this combo and get that BFP before Valentine's Day.

well i went on met for 3 months prior and it did absoulty nothing for me..i was on 1000mg..and my testosterone was through the roof..but my dr said to try it again cuz the clomid met combo works quite well for most..so im trying it..but it is frusterating i know..but u get to a point where u dont want to waste time hoping for things to work out when u might be a few pills away from a baby...just my outlook though i know its alot tougher than that!

I hear what you saying. When I dread popping all these pills I just thing about the outcome.

I am not sure what the purpose would be. I guess my doc wants to see about my follies. Doesn't clomid help with follie producing as well? Or is it for ovulation alone? I ovulate with the help of Met.

I was not diagnosed until 2004 so when I had my daughter I wasn't on any medication.

Sorry not to respond sooner. Babydust!
