hi! I am new here. I am from the Philippines and was diagnosed with PCO 3 years ago. Weird thing is that all my female cousins have PCOS so I guess it's hereditary and runs in the family. I haven't had a regular period since I was a teenager but I am not overweight, I don't have facial hair. I just am sooo irregular and my ovaries are bigger than normal...

I am not 7 weeks pregnant thanks to Clomid and Metformin. My question is, my doctor wants me to continue with metformin even if I am PG, well for the 1st 12 weeks only. Has anyone taken Metformin while PG?

ohno
