Hi all.

It's my first time posting in here but I figured it was about time as we are now on our 16th cycle of TTC!

In the past three months I have been diagnosed with an underactive thyroid (which I am now on thyroxine for)

And more recently PCOS (which I am now on Metformin for)

I'm just wondering if any of your girls have PCOS and tried metformin or if any of you know of someone who has, just wondering how it worked for them?

Also I am going to be on metformin for 4 months then on september the 1st hopefully starting on Clomid.

All replies welcome.

Hope you all had a nice sunny bank holiday weekend.

xx

    Oh grrrr....BE just ate my reply. Sorry to say I can't help much re the PCOS but I'm sure lots of these other ladies can. Welcome to this lovely forum and I hope, in the nicest possible way, that your stay here is a short one.

    Hi i am on metformin and have been since feb not really sure if it has done anything as we are having ICSI but it does help with weight which is a bonus. Be aware that you can't really drink on the pills not sure if you know xx
