I have insulin resistance and am currently taking 1500mg of metformin a day. I don't have regular cycles, and have actually not had a period on my own (without progesterone) since going off of birth control last September. I have tried a few rounds of clomid, but I still don't ovulate.
I was thinking that perhaps I jumped the gun on the TTC portion of this journey and that I should be back-tracking and just focusing on getting my hormones regulated so that my cycles can be a little more normal.
I don't want to go to an RE just yet (since they are really expensive and not covered by my insurance), so I was wondering if an OBGYN could help me get my periods regular again.
If so, what medication would they need to prescribe? Or what course of action should I suggest that they should take?
Thanks for your time!
