Hi everyone.

While my husband and I have only been married 6 months we have been TTC for 2 years. I was only given an official PCOS diagnosis 5 months ago (despite having issues and requesting tests for over 6 years) and started on metformin and my folic acid was increased.

I have been advised that blood tests have shown low levels of bonding agents which suggests I don't produce eggs as often and am being send for a HSG(?) xray.

I have been advised to loose weight before they would consider Chlomid, which is fine and I am doing so.

Just wondered what other people's experiences have been around side effects of metformin as since I've started taking it I feel it has drastically changed my appitite and the way I tororate certain foods (which could help sometimes with the weight loss😅)

Also what experiences have others had in the Fertility process? While my doctor is lovely I just don't get any timescales out of her even though I understand it hard to measure or predict, but wondered if others had requested alternative treatments that may have worked?

Anyway sorry for the long post/semi-rant at the end and look forward to hearing from some of you soon!
