pcos and wanting to get pregnant

I started trying to get pregnant in June of 2001. I got off of the pill, and in 6 months, I only had 2 periods. I sought medical advice, and after blood tests and ultrasounds, I was diagnosed with PCOS. I got on Clomid in February of 2002 and after checking out my day 21 progesterone levels, and doubling my dosage to get me to ovulate, we stayed on this route off and on for about a year. We tried to get pregnant naturally, just also taking Clomid. The Clomid keeps causing my ovaries to hyperstimulate and they I have to get off. Right now I have a gigantic cyst on my right ovary.

I had a laporoscopy in Nov 2002 and they discovered and cleaned out a lot of endometriosis. Since then, I've tried one month of Clomid/trying naturally and one month of insemination - neither worked.

Now, I am on glucophage. I've only been on it 1 week, and I'm working my way into the 3 pills a day (1500 mg/day) dosage. My question is - can anyone who has any success stories with glucophage/pcos/and getting pregnant write me?

It seems that a lot of the literature you read about on the internet is very negative, and makes one think that if they have PCOS, they won't get pregnant.

Thanks, Sherry
