THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL YOU ADVISE THAT YOU GIVE ME IN MY DIFFICULT SEARCH AND CONSIFDERSTION OF THE SURGERY

Answer 1

Laproscopy will in no way "clean" your tubes or ovaries. They simply put an instrument into your abdoman and look for things like endometriosis. Unless they do something like remove any endo or ovarian drilling then it will in no way affect your chances of getting pg.

Answer 2

I am assuming since you are on Metformin (AKA Glucophage) that you have PCOS and this is the source of your fertility troubles. Usually the surgery used to treat this condition is ovarian drilling (basically they go in there and pop all those immature eggs that never dropped to get rid of all that excess estrogen they are producing). PCOS would not cause your tubes to be clogged but it can cause your uterus to have inappropriate lining that is not conducive to implantation.

If either of these issues are considered to blame for your lack of pregnancy, you may get excellent results from having the procedure done. The usual protocal for treating infertility caused by PCOS is metformin taken at the same time as birth control pills for several cycles and definitely until your bloodwork shows that your hormones and hypothalymus are back on track. Then the patient continues to take metformin, stops taking the birth control pills, and immediately starts Clomid. If the patient is not pregnant after three cycles, is not ovulating with any dose of clomid, or has other issues discovered in the course of taking clomid, then the patient must take the next steps.

You really should get the advice of a reproductive endocrinologist, ob/gyn, and hopefully a fertility specialist to get a better idea of what your best options are depending on your issues.
