I started metformin a few months back and have had a period about 2 months ago. For the last few weeks on and off I have had left ovary pain with referred pain in my left breast and sometimes shooting down my arm to my wrist. This is strange as I have never had the referred pain before just the ovary pains! Anyone else gets this??
Right my question is, I have had left ovary pain for the last week and a couple of shooting pains in my right ovary too, I decided to buy myself the clearblue digital ovulation testing kit. Yesterday I did the test and it said positive. I phoned the help line and the lady didn't quite answer my question. My question was do you get a positive result after your most fertile days? say for the rest of the month until your period, or does it only say positive on the days you can actually conceive?. Her answer to me was that because I have pcos I shouldn't use the test as it will give a false result. If I have got a positive result on metformin with this ovulation test and negative results on other days, it must be picking up some sort of LH surge? Maybe not enough to kick out an egg, but enough to bring on a period!
Has anyone else used these test with pcos and metformin? Or just pcos?
Thanks ladies
a few days after the couple of positive results it turned negative so that answers my question. Still no period yet. Will do a preg test soon to see soon as my body temp is up in the morning, as it would be after a ovulation. I will leave it a week though as I'm fed up with spending money on these tests.
