I have PCOS and have known about it for 7
months now,and in the last 9 months i have
only had 2 periods,and i only had thoes as
i am taking 1000mg of metformin per day!
I just want to work out the days that i am
fertile. Every site that i go on to look
at conception days dont have the option
for longer cycles! as it seems that i have
one good ovary and one that isnt releasing
an egg as i had a cycle then missed then
another one!
The first day of my first P since taking
metformin was 25th Jan 08 my P after that
came 26th March 08!
Can anyone help me or point me in the
right direction?
Please give me your thoughts and ideas!
mant thanks Cat.

The only way to know if/ when you are
ovulating would be to track your basal
body temperature.
However, it would be extremely difficult
to conceive if you are having 61 day
cycles, and egg quality that late in a
cycle would be very poor.
I suggest you talk to your doctor about
medications. They may need to up your Met
dosage for it to be more effective. You
also might want to talk about Femera or
Clomid to make you ovulate.

After 3 years of no protection weird
periods etc. I went on a health kick. All
natural foods. No hot dogs, bread, junk
food...fastfood etc. I just ate fruit
veggies lean meats and fish. I started
getting my periods almost regularly and
then within 7 months I became pregnant. I
am 19 weeks now. The baby is healthy and I
am too.. Just becareful with some of the
drugs out there.
I hope you're not using METFORMIN to
concieve! I went to my OB after reading an
artical about the drug. I thought it would
help me carry my baby, because I became
pregnant with PCOS. He had just went to a
confrence and he said its one of the worst
things to take to concieve because it can
cause HUGE problems during pregnancy
inclding infant death. ONCE you start
taking it if you become pregnant you have
to stay on it and it will probably cause
death to the fetus early on. So, be
careful.. My OB is the head of the
hospital where I live he's great.
