What's the next step after no ovulation with Metformin?

I'm 27 have been trying to get pregnant for 3 years. My periods have been irregular (or non-existent) since I was about 21 and I have PCOS. I have been on Metformin for 4 months and have had a period each month. I was feeling really positive that the Metformin were working but now I just had a day 21 progesterone test and the result came back at 2.9 which the doctor told me I had not ovulated. I thought if you had a period it meant you had ovulated?? My cycle is usually 32-35 days so do you think day 21 was the wrong day to test?

I just wanted to know what the next step should be? The NHS are quite slow to see me, is it worth going private? Do you think they will put me on Clomid next? or is there something else I should try first? I'm getting quite desperate now and don't want to be taking pills for 6 months or so with no positive outcome!

Hope you can help, thanks!

Hi thornton,

The most likely next step is Clomid in cases like yours

Good luck, and keep us posted..
