Metformin??

I questioned that over a year ago and after all the test and ultrasounds they said everything seemed normal but they did notice a couple of follicles but they said its nothing to worry about. Well its been like 3 months since i have had a period and I know that i'm not prego. taken tests and nothing. For the last couple weeks i have been EXTREMELY tired..and when i say tired i mean draggin a$$ all day, can barely keep my eyes open and everytime i get up to walk around it feels like i'm going to blackout and i get really dizzy. So i went to the doctor yesterday and she FINALLY agreed that i could more than likely have PCOS (since you can't test for it). She said to try the Metformin for a couple months to see what happens. So far i felt SO sick this morning but after eating i felt better just SO tired...I am sick of being tossed around and shoving pills down my throat that do nothing for me..I can't do anything but cry when I think about all of this..I am 22 years old. I shouldn't be having all these problems

Hi there, sounds like you need a [[[hug]]]. Your story sounds somewhat similar to mine. I got pregnant with my first DS easily after I lost about 20 lbs planning for my wedding all the stress and stuff. So DH and I thought it would be easy to conceive our second, but after two years of trying and charting we were unsuccessful. I went to a gyno and she took bloodtests and I wasn't ovulating apparently. I was stuck on clomid for six months and no pregnancy from that either. I became very depressed at that point and ended up going on antideppresants which helped me cope dramatically, I was constantly crying and extremely tired all the time, so bad I couldn't get off the couch. I decided to see another local doctor who is a satelite office for a fertility clinic and she got down to business and did a major bloodsugar test like 3 hours and found out I was insulin resistant, then proceeded to do a ultrasound and found I had the classic PCOS ovaries. I had to go see a endocrinologist sp? (diabetes doctor) who specialized in PCOS. It took 3 months to get into see the diabetes doctor. Inbetween that time I lost 15 lbs. The Endocrinologist was very upbeat and said in the 15 years she had practiced not one woman with PCOS had come through her office that didn't end up getting pregnant. I was encouraged to say the least. I started taking Metformin 1000mg a day and took soy isoflavones 80ml days 2-6 which is a natural over the counter clomid, boom pregnant first cycle. He is 2 1/2 and sassy as ever. Metformin can work, I hope this gives you some encouragement. Don't give up!!!
