Hi Bluetit,
As she is TTC, that won’t happen, after Metformin it’s insulin as anything else may harm the baby.
Strong girl, I didn’t know the role that diabetes plays in conception till I went to my GP as tried with ex but it wasn’t happening. I’m now single so doing the journey alone and saving for a round of IVF abroad.
The thing is that Metformin regulates your cycle, I’m now able to know when I’m ovulating but have no one to help with the baby making. Everyone’s journey is different. Have you had your ovaries scanned and your hormones done? This will let you know where you are, also see if you can get a referral to the conception clinic as you have been trying for a while. Good luck
I’ve always had regular cycles and definately ovulate, although I do have most of the other common symptoms. I had 7dpo bloods taken last week (which is also when HbA1C was run) and will have CD1 tests this coming Friday. So will hopefully learn more soon.
Good luck with the IVF. It’s an exciting step!
