Hi JennInSeattle,

It takes time to receive an answer, most of us have other commitments like family and jobs. Don't get discouraged if you have to wait a few days before receiving an answer. You don't include much information in your question. That could make answering more difficult. Are you doing well? Are you tolerating the metformin well? How is your blood levels? Are you monitoring progesterone levels? Any hypoglycemia? Anything to indicate gestational diabetes? If you are doing well, and baby is well, why stop? Many PCOSers use the metformin throughout the entire pregnancy with great success. 17 weeks is still early, and stopping early *might* cause problems. What does your obgyn say? Let us know how things go.

luck, SusieQ
