Hi, I had a similar experience. I had read about the benefits of glucophage on boards like these and asked a RE about taking it. He totally turned me down, because I was not trying to concieve. However, with support from the boards, I found another RE who was willing to put me on it. I just started the drug today and I'm hoping for positive results. On another note, I didn't find Yasmin to be anything special so if you found something that works, I say stick with it. Good luck!
