Hi ladies,
I have searched the Internet unsuccessfully trying to find out the answer to my question. First let me premise by saying that I am 38 and it took three years for my husband and I to get pregnant with baby #1. We were successful in getting pregnant with #1 by taking Metformin. Got pregnant in the first month of taking it.
We know we want to have a second child and I feel like I really have a short window of time left so we want to get pregnant right away and use the Metformin again. I am not even sure that I've had a period yet or if I was just bleeding from the C-section and all that jazz. From what I read they say that it takes anywhere from 8-10 weeks for normal periods and ovulation to start again. I just gave birth 5 weeks ago.
So my question is, can I start taking the Metformin again and will that give me a period or help me ovulate early in this time that I am unsure of whether I had my period or not? Does anyone know? I am trying to find out when the best time to start taking the Metformin again would be. Am I going to have to wait until I naturally have a period again for it to be effective???
If anyone knows the answer to these questions, please enlighten me. Hoping for "Irish Twins." I posted this question in "Waiting to Conceive" too as I wasn't sure which category to post this under.
Have a great day!
