I saw my OBGYN yesterday. He wants to do lots of bloodwork as I am having a bunch of problems losing weight. He gave us the option  of continuing what we are doing...which is nothing, or Clomid. Well so far the first option isnt working. DH doesnt want to take our time as he says he isnt getting any younger (38). So we will do the clomid as soon as AF shows up again.

He said since I hav PCOS that w could do metfomin but he didnt push it. why? He said if I want to try it that all I have to do is call him. He gave me 4 refills for the clomid which seemed like a lot to me. He also gave me provera again so that when AF doesnt show by CD 35 I can invite her.

I feel comforted knowing what I have learned from you ladies about being monitored with the clomid. He will do a few U/S throughout just to make sure I am responding well.

Is it weird that he is starting me on 100mg of clomid? He says its because of my weight.

I was also started at 100mg of Clomid. Many of us PCOS girls also have the same problems with losing weight. Our metabolic system is so screwed up that it makes it very difficult. I would try adding the Metformin, it won't hurt, and if it can help make you more sensitive to insulin, that could also help jump start ovulation. A lot of people have bad side effects from Metformin, so that may be why he didn't push it. Its not bad once you body adapts to it though. Not for me at least. But I know each person is different. Good luck!
