Addition of glucophage?
Has adding glucophage helped any of you ladies? Last cycle (my first TTC) I didn't stim. We've added glucophage and increased my Femara. My follie scan is on Friday and I'm nervous that I won't stim again. Does anyone have experience with pre and post glucophage stimming?

I don't know if my stimulations improved after beginning glucophage (Metformin) because at the same time I switched from Letrozole to Gonal F so they were two very different meds. One thing I did notice is that I stopped getting false positives on my ovluation predictor kits. This was great news to me because it means that my problem with high LH looks like it's been corrected. Having high LH is common with PCOS and I had it while stimming on Letrozole. You'd think I'd have the same thing while stimming on Gonal F but I didn't, and I think it was because I had been put on the Metformin.
