Jan Firstly congrats. I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question, but I would ask your dr. I think depending on where you are that they like you to stop the met as soon as you know. I know I've been told following IUI that if in a fortnights time I test positive I have to stop taking my met. I have already been put on prog suppositories just in case too, so I can't imagine that they can do harm. Good luck on Monday
