I was on metformin for 4 years and never got pregnant. Of course though, my cycles never became regular though either. I don't think you can honestly put a time frame on it, I think what you need to have happen is get regular cycles so you are able to figure out when you ovulate to become pregnant.

Hello Nadine, I've been TTC since September and I'm also taking metformin 1500/day and so far nothing has happened but I've been getting my periods every month and I've been taking my BBT which shows I have been ovulating. My doctor and I decided if by February I don't get pregnant then he will put me on Clomid. I'm sorry I don't have an exact answer. It's difficult to put a time frame because everyone is different. What's important is not to lose hope.
All the best to you.

i took metformin for 1 month and my progestron level went up 5 points. it was .5 and it went to 5.5 on 1000mg a day. doc says still not ovulating ,that it needs to be a 10 to ovulate and 15 to keep a pregnancy. don't lose hope, ask your doc about clomid and metformin together. i decided to try clomid for a month alone to see what it does if no go with that alone i'm going on both next month. be patience
