I have PCOS. I started clomid last summer. I took a few rounds of it..... and nothin!, so the dr. put me on metaformin as well. When I first started taking it, I was supposed to take 2 tablets a day , but I was sooo sick. So I dropped down to 1 tablet for the first two weeks, then started taking it 2 tabs a day. they also put me on a low carb diet as well. and told me to excersize. The first month with all of that. the clomid, the diet, the metaformin, and being active. I was pregnant. the metaformin sucked, and i took to for 12 weeks into the pregancy, b/c is lessens the chance of miscarraige, as aposed to going off of it right away.

anyway, it worked, and now i"m 34 weeks, only 6 weeks to go, and it was worth all the feeling sick in the beginning for the metaformin. :)

good luck to you!

Just as a afterthought if you havn't been to this site http://www.soulcysters.net/ you might want to check it out. The ladies on there know alot about PCOS and there are alot of resources listed on the boards there.

Lots of baby dust to you! I also have PCOS and I started taking Metformin last month. The first couple weeks were horrible I was in a lot of pain and food went right through me. I started taking it at night so I would sleep through a little bit of the symptoms. One day I woke up and they were gone... completely gone. I have been fine ever since. It does get better and it will happen within a couple weeks. I also started clomid this month and I just got a positive OPK yesterday. It was really late in my Cycle though, I am suppose to start my period in two days. I hope this helps and make sure you are watching for all the sigs of ovulation. One day I ovulated on my own (rarely happens) and I was on CD 14 and this time with clomid I ovulated on CD 26.

There is also a time release formula for metformin that I have heard is alot better on your stomach.

ask your doctor about the extend tabs- they may be better- if you can make it through the belly aches its worth it!!
all the besst!

I also have PCOS and am currently on metformin and chlomid together. I started the metformin one month prior to starting the chlomid and it made me very sick to my stomach. My body just got used to it and I forced myself to eat better all of the time and that seemed to help. I take 500mg 3 times a day. 150mg of chlomid this month and I go to the dr on the 13th for a progesterone test and the week after I will get the results to see if I even ovulated. So we will see.
Good luck to you and keep me updated. Baby dust to you!

I have been on metformin on and off for a few years and have got pregnant twice with it and no fertility meds. I have had some upset stomach but not to to bad. It just takes time for your system to get used to it. I take 2000 mg a day and I split that into 2 doses, that seems to help alot.
