Hi - my name is sherry. I was put on Clomid because of my PCOS diagnosis. I tried for several months on Clomid and still didn't ovulate. They eventually doubled my clomid dosage and I did ovulate, but over a year later, never got pregnant on it. AND...I keep getting huge cysts larger than the size of my uterus on my ovaries. The ovaries get enlarged and I get really bloated. Finally, I got so tired of taking Clomid for 2 months, and then having to get off for 3 or 4 to let the cysts go away, that I got on glucophage instead. I don't know how long it will take me to get pregnant - I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I've only been on it 2 weeks now.
