Re: how long being on metformin for polycystic ovaries can i get gregnant

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.

Re: how long being on metformin for polycystic ovaries can i get gregnant

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
