TTC#1 with PCOS on clomid and Metformin
January 17, 2008
Hello I am 26 years old and was recently diagnosed with PCOS and was referred to a infertility speacialist in my area. We started my first round of 100mg of clomid on cd 6-10 and 1500mg of metformin after my natural Af started in Dec. 12, 2007. Cd 21 my progesterone was low indicitive that I hadn't ovulated on the clomid my first round which sucks. So now it's cd 32 and no Af yet I will call the doctor in a few days after I take a test (which will most likely be a BFN but they will ask if I took one). Next round is going to be 150mg of Clomid on cd 3-7 and 1500mg of Metformin. Just hoping to actually ovulate this go round. I am a well newborn nurse at a large hospital that does over 8,000 births a year and after seeing all these people that can get pregnant it always depressing especially after seeing the cost of infertility. Wishing and hoping to have a bundle of joy of my own soon. Thanks for any and all baby dust!!! ***Lots of baby dust to all***
Hi KellyV I too am trying to conceive and have PCOS...I have been on 5 rounds of clomid and all 5 failed and I had one IUI with the clomid...so I am going to see an RE now and we will Do famera as soon as the progesterone brings on AF....so it will be about two weeks and then if that does not work but i have my fingers crossed...we will move on to injectables...so I hope that everything works out for you...we are all here if you need support or just to vent...take care and lots of baby dust!!!
Hi Kelly, what ur Dr is doing is right, I was diagnosed with PCOS too but for me my weight was a major factor and she wanted me to lose all the weight before starting the Metformin..I got preggo before I started Met/Clomid. So, u are on the right track. Also, start using OPKs and dont worry, it will happen to u, a matter of time.

Recently I went to see and RE also for the first time, and as long as my tubes are open, she said there is a much greater chance of getting pregnant from injectabl meds. So if this doesnt work for you, though I KNOW it is very hard to deal with- there are other possibilities. I am a kindergarten teacher, so not only do I work with a bunch of fertile young women, I teach little kids all day- and I know the thoughts are hard to escape someday. Just day dream and envision yourself as a mother, and stay positive-
I hope this gives you hope that clomid is not your only option. Hang in there!!
