My Update
April 30, 2008
Im cd11. Went to see the "NEW" Dr today. I LOVE Him!!! He listened to everything I had to say. He wrote me a script for Metformin(for general health due to pcos) He did u/s and found right ovary has 6 small follies and left has 2 big ones 1.7 and 1.8, so tomorrow I go back to the office for the trigger, then Friday I go for IUI. Were not going to try injectables just yet, he thinks I have a good chance w/ the iui and trigger sense the clomid does make me O. and as far as the lack of CM and hostile environment , No worries , IUI will bypass all that. Im and very excited but nervous as hell too.
Thanks for all ur support ladies. U guys rock!!!!

I am having stomach issues, bad. Very nauseas in the mornings (i think it's cause I take 'em at night) and then loose bowels pretty much anytime I eat ANYTHING. But i've been told by my doc that it usually weans off. It gets better day by day. I've been on it just a little over a week, so hopefully by the start of week 3 the side effects will wear off.
Good luck w/ the IUI tommorow! Please update us as soon as you can.

shawnee- i am on metformin as well...my only side effects are nausea and being thirsty!! (feels like i am bordering on a UTI sometimes I am so dehydrated!)
I actually am constipated from it though. Apparently it causes loose bowels in most people, but if you have a history of constipation, it will go that way! have fun! :) Its really not that bad!

Just out of curiosity ladies, what exactly does the Metformin help with? Is it the insulin levels? I was always a little confused on that? Does it help you lose weight at all? I read somewhere that someone lost 15-20 pounds after being on Metformin for 2 months. So I was just wondering.
Thanks and BABYDUST!!!!!!!!!!

yes akt, it most definitely helps w/ pcos and insulin levels, that's why Im on it! And I have also heard u lose weight from it. Im hoping to drop 25 lbs, I believe my weight is due to the pcos, cuz I eat healthy and good portions. So Im really looking forward to seeing some results. Only bad thing I hear is lose bowels for the 1st coupe of weeks while ur body is adjusting. (maybe thats wear the weight loss comes in LOL)

Shawnee, this is so exciting!!! Already in the 2WW again! I can't wait to hear about your BFP in the next couple of weeks!! This is going to be it!!!
OH- by the way, if you don't mind me asking, was the IUI expensive? I know you said you had to have the trigger shot too. So I was wondering how much you had to pay out of pocket... I hope it wasn't much!
Good luck sweetie and can't wait to hear your updates!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea I know! Didn't u say u had UHC Amanda? If so I would look into it, b/c the website said they covered NOTHING on infertility treatments,I called and it was a whole other story. So it's worth looking into!!
