Clomid
I know we have mention this time and time again and there is something else that start with a M I think it is Metoforim or something like that. Can I have your thoughts on these. Im considering it but don't know too much about the side effects or how effective these therapies are? Is is worth it.

Re: Clomid
in order to take metformin u need to have blood work done, only take it if u have pcos, which the bloodwork will confirm. if u do need metformin after ur tests have been done than yes it is wonderful. it has not yet been approved by the fda but drs have been prescribing it for years to pcos patients and seeing great results. it helps to get ur cylce regulated and promotes ovulation. metformin is fda approved for diabetes 2, so u cant just take it without really having pcos. hope the info helps u. good luck to u

Clomid helps you to ovulate more than one egg. This increases your chances of getting pregnant. It also raises progesterone after O.

Re: Clomid
Metformin is given to women with PCOS. It is thought that insulin issues can lead to irregular mentruation and anovulation, so metformin works to regulate hormones.
Clomid blocks estrogen receptors to stimulate FSH production. The purpose to produce follicle maturation and growth.
