Metformin vs. Clomid

Hi ladies! Need your advice please. My doctor confirmed with ultrasound and bloodwork I have a mild case of pcos (came off bc in October and have progressively been having more & more problems) Im having irregular periods and ovary pain. She said I could either go on metformin to treat pcos and I may get pregnant that way, or start Clomid right away and hope to get pregnant next cycle. I don't know why but I'm really torn on which to do. I know Clomid can be pretty hard on your body. And I've heard pcos helps to lose weight (is this true?). I like the weight loss aspect of metformin but not sure how long it'll take to get pregnant that route. Do I risk the pcos getting worse by taking metformin or does that medicine prevent it from getting worse. Can you take it while TTC? If you took Clomid do you feel it was worth it? What was your experience? Thanks all so much for your advice!
