Hi, ladies! First off, I LOVE this forum and it is so great to see how supportive everyone is. To give you a little background, I was diagnosed at PCOS at 18 and tried to treat it naturally (off the pill) until right before my hubby and I got married. We decided to go back on the pill before we got married. We've been married three years now and have decided to start trying for a family. I've been off the pill since the end of March.
I had my normal withdrawal bleed starting on April 4th. Since then, it has been 73 days and I haven't ovulated or had a period. I've taken three pregnancy tests and all have been negative. I know that I can't keep going without a withdrawal bleed, but I have a couple questions for you ladies.
Have any of you with PCOS used metformin? If so, was it helpful to you? My glucose blood results have always come out normal and I really, really try to eat healthy (I'm only a smidge over-weight), so I'm unsure if metformin will be helpful to me.
Have any of you with PCOS tried using natural progesterone cream? If so, has it been helpful in regulating your cycles?
I'm going to see my nurse-midwife on Tuesday and will ask here these questions as well, but I'm curious about your experiences. Thank you in advance for all the replies!
Baby dust to everyone!
God bless!
