I went to my first RE appt. today and the RE was great & super sweet. She gave me a prescription for Metformin and Provera. She suggested that I take Provera every other month and I can start Metformin as soon as I go pick it up. She did say that I should get more excise and cut down on my carbs and hopefully when I go back to see her in July all my levels are down and then we will discuss a fertility plan. She also advised me to take a pregnancy test before taking Provera. Is it possible to get pregnant while only taking Metformin? I thought thats where Clomid came in? IDK. Can anybody share what you know about Metformin and getting pregnant? As I was looking online in some cases women got pregnant on there first month of taking it! I want a baby but after reading that it could happen so quick. I need some time to prepare myself! lol

"Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about."

yep, its possible to start ovulating just taking Metformin alone. I didn't ovulate at all until the RE added Metformin to the other stuff I was on. I got pregnant the first time I ended up ovulating the entire time we were trying. So it's possible. ha ha. At least you are aware it could happen very suddenly now... I was taken completely by surprise ;-) -
I guess this kind of answers my other post. Thanks! I have been on the internet reading up on Metformin and found lots of women who were suprised how fast they got pregnant. I hope to be one of them!"Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything.
