Any PCOS women have success on Metformin and Clomid?

[Justine17]

I've been diagnosed with PCOS recently and will start Metformin and Clomid.  I've heard the chances of having a healthy pregnancy with these meds are 40% for PCOS women which isn't too bad but wish it was more like 80%  : )  Just wanted to hear any success stories to help cheer me up. Thanks

Hi, I was diagnosed with PCOS and have been ttc for a year and a half now. I have been on metformin for a little over 5 months an I was just now referred to a fertility specialist I am young and I think that's why things are going so slow but I finally get to see the fertility specialist that I see next week. I know the next step is clomid or some type of fertility drugs. Is there anything I should know going in or any questions I should ask? I have always wanted to be a mom I don't come from money so depending on how far I go into fertility I only have one shot I don't wanna make any silly mistakes ... any advice ?!

I know that for me, and this is my third cycle of Clomid, that it did correct the second phase (Luteal Phase) of my cycle.  I went from it being 5 or 6 days until my period stated to over 10 days.  I hope the treatment works for you.  Wishing you lots of baby dust and welcome to Med Help.

Alin, best luck to you as well. I tried 2 rounds of clomid with iui and didn't ovualte. So this time I will be trying 150 mg of clomid with acupuncture and hopefully a trigger shot

Hi there
. Im new to this so i thank you first for sharing your stories. I was diagnosed with pcos 7 years ago, and never thought anything more of it other than my irregualarities until i got married a few years back and went off my bc and never got pergnant. Long story short i am on metformin 1000mg2xs a day and starting clomid on cd5. We are hopeful this will work but it is so wonderful to see that there are others going through the same kind of issues. Best of luck to all
