Before I got pregnant with my daughter, I was having abnormal periods. I had one in June, one in October, and one in July and found out that I was pregnant in August. My husband and I have been trying to concieve again, since she was 6mos. old. She is almost 2 now, and no luck. Just recently I went my gynocolgist because after 16 months of NEVER missing a period, I started missing them again. To make a long story short, she done some labs and tests and diagnosed me with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrom. (PCOS) And told me what she thought I was going through was 2nd baby infertility. She put me on glucosaphage to regulate my insulin, and Yasmin, an oral contraceptive. I'm just wondering does anyone else have this or have heard of it? She wants me to take CLOMIN after she pulls me off of these meds. if I still haven't concieved. Can anyone help?

I was diagnosed with PCOS a year and a half ago. We just had our first baby 7 months ago. I took the glucophage, and lost some weight and once I found out I was pregnant I took progesterone and estrogen to keep the pregnancy. I was told that in order to take Clomid you would have to be on the glucophage at the same time, I took 2 rounds of Clomid not on the gluc. and had no luck just awful reactions. Be prepared to take the gluc. for at least 3 months before anything happens, it needs to be in your system for awhile. Also I read a great book that really helped and it was really good, I have lent it to some friends and they have all gotten pregnant. A FEW GOOD EGGS, is the name of the book.

I was diagnosed with PCOS in March of this year after 2 years off the pill and a year of very frustrating, active trying, and they put me straight on clomiphene (overseas doc said I was far enough advanced that he'd just start me on fertility drugs right away, great, huh), no glucophage. When I conceived during my third cycle, they didn't even give me hormones, in fact when I told the doctors that I had been undergoing infertility treatments, they looked at me like "so?", but I'm 25 weeks and healthy--and there's only one in there. I'm not really sure what all you're looking for here, but that was my experience. I hope you have better doctors and therefore a better time with it than I have.

I think you mean clomiddd? My wife was on that. Try it, it will help keep your cycles regular, but watch out for side effects - my wife got really depressed.
