Well, Metformin is actually a drug for diabetics..But is also prescibed for women that have PCOS..When you have PCOS, your ovaries basically shut down due to lack of insulin & a inbalance of hormones. Metformin helps to restore the insulin to get the ovaries pumping correctly--thus ovulation will occur..On that note, a woman is able to conceive because of proper ovaulation. I have PCOS & I just started taking it---my friend also took it & conceived after 3 months..Hopefully this info is helpful, and your reproductive system will respond & help you conceive...Good luck!

Can metformin cause diarrhea and stomach pain?
Yes, diarrhea and stomach pain are some of the side effects when you first start metformin, or if you eat a high-fat meal or snack while taking metformin. Starting with a low dose and increasing gradually, taking care to not overdo fatty foods, and (according to some) using the controlled release version of metformin can help reduce these side effects. In addition, stopping and starting metformin often will cause you to go through the initial period of side effects just as often, so be faithful in taking it as prescribed.
