I have been taking Metformin 1700mg since Feb 05 and spending a fortune on Ovulation and pregnancy tests.
Why is everything so expensive in relation to pregnancy!

my personal experience: 6 cycles of clomid is enough. If you haven't got pregnant by then, tell your doctor to move on and start trying other stuff like pergonal injections. It worked for me, got pregnant the third time!
I was prescribed Tamoxifen once and got pregnant the first try, unfortunately I miscarried (second pregnancy). Tamoxifen is a medication prescribed to post-menopausal women with breast cancer. Now there is Femara (kind of same thing), both medications have a positive effect in women with PCOS, they help to ovulate.
Talk to your doctor, he can tell you if Femara is right for you!

I have PCOS, however not a severe case. I am not insulin resistant or anything like that. I started Metfromin 1500mg a day this May, I took a round of Clomid in August, hated the side effects so I skipped a month to go on a vacation and the month a skipped I got pregnant. The metformin takes at about 6 months to even get in your system enough to work. After being on it for 4 months my cycle length went down from 70days long to about 35 days, big improvement.
I felt the same way like I would never get pregnant and I am now 18 weeks and everything is going great. Good luck to you and make sure you use ovulation test stips..they are very important when you have PCOS.

I have PCOS..tried to get pregnant for 3yrs before I was diagnosed with it.
I did 5 rounds of Clomid (from Sept 05 to Jan 06). I was diagnosed with PCOS in Feb 06 and started Metformin that month....I also got pregnant that month and now have a 7wk old baby girl!
I got pregnant with our son without trying 4yrs ago, even though I had PCOS...concieving him without meds was a miracle my dr's said.

Once infertility has been diagnosed, there are a number of treatment options available depending on the root cause of the problem. Learn here https://tr.im/nOoEN
Infertility is a condition defined as not being able to become pregnant after at least one year of unprotected, regular, well-timed intercourse. Women who suffer from multiple miscarriages may also be diagnosed as infertile. Infertility may be classified into two groups, primary and secondary infertility.

When you can't get pregnant, and things look good from the outside, it can be extremely frustrating.
The first thing to consider is how long have you been trying. About 80% of couples will get pregnant after six months of trying, and about 90% will be pregnant after 12 months of trying to get pregnant. Anyway this is a great methid to get pregnant fast https://tr.im/f87e9

I have a friend who was on both for the same reason. Took her almost a year, but she's now in her second trimester, healthy and ecstatic. I had different issues, so I understand the "this is never gonna happen" anxiety all too well. It will. Hang in there.

I was only on clomiphene, but I conceived on the 3rd cycle. You'll get there. Good Luck.
