Hello.

I need a little help if possible??

I got diagnosed with PCOS last october and got started on metformin i started on 500mcg and gradually built it up to 2000mcg altho i cant stomach 2000 so generally take 1500mcg.
My periods were all the place anyway between 45-72 days!!!
It tool 3 months for met to start to work.
Jan cycle was 44 days long,
Feb cycle 35 days,
March cycle was 28 days...not had a 28 day cycle ever!! Soo pleased my cycles are regulating .............................
anyhow this months period is currently day 38????
Can i take this as being a late period, or is it common to have cycles like this while on metformin??

Thanks ladies

I have PCOS and took metformin until I got my BFP. My cycles were anywhere from 28 days to 36 days. At first they seemed to regulate to more like 30 days but they soon became random again.
I got loads of cheap tests off ebay and tested ALL the blummin' time!

We were ttc for 4 years but I'm now almost 18 weeks pregnant. Hope it happens soon for you xxx
