Re: Can gloucophage increase fertility? (long story...sorry)From: Sonnet (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 27 Feb 2001 14:56:24 -0600 (CST)
Hi anonymous :) You're doing the right thing for your body by being on Metformin and doing anything else you can to lower your insulin levels, it sounds as though you have very good doctors. You might also want to look into low carbing to help reduce them further. One of the side effects of lowering your insulin levels is that you have a better shot at restoring fertility. There's no definite answers but I will say that it sounds promising to most women. Stay on the meds for a while and eat well, then go back and try the fertility thing again with Clomid etc. It has worked for a number of women with PCOS so there is definitely hope! As an aside, my endo recently told me (but this is second hand so take it with a grain of salt) that if drugs like Provera do not work to induce a period, he suspects adrenal problems. It might be something to look into or ask your doctor about!
