hello my name is jody ,
im a newbie ive been looking for a place to seek help , friends and other woman in the same position im in,
over the last 3 years ive had 4 m/c
at 8 weeks jan 2006 , at 14 weeks sept2006, at 9 weeks jan 2007 , at 8 weeks sept 2007,..............then in december 2007 i had an abnormal pap come back i had CIN III (no hpv found) removed by wire loop excision all paps come back clear since have since pilled on the weight as a result of sadness and just feeling pretty low, now 112kg was 92kgs
( should tell you i was tested back in 2005 and was confirmed i carry the cancer gene 17 , 18 most woman in my family develope cancer in thier reproductive organs (estrogen fed cancer) so what chance do i have hey!!!!! but i have regular paps i have mamograms and scans of my ovaries and uterus every 2 years .)
i have had irregular cycles since my first m/c , since last year from the removal of the cells , ive had 1 period just a week ago (so im cd 16 at the moment)
i chart all my cycles for the gynie to review since having an ultrasound and blood test is shows i have pcos but blood test results showed my insulin was low at 11 (i think she said) so that was ok but the male homone androgens were high hense the long cycles pimples hairy arms and slight facial hair growth not too bad thank goodness ,
my doctor has prescribed me metformin , what i wanted to know is has anyone larger framed .... used metformin and fallen pregnant , how long does it usually take to pull in cycles so you can ovulate more reguarly and all important can it be used during pregnancy, im on 500 a day for the first 2 weeks then 1000 a day for the next 2 weeks then i will be 1500 then on
last cycle was 5 months long the one before that was 7 months long so since my m/c and gaining the weight after each m/c my cycles have really blown out,
im cd 16 today
thanks you in advance for your help
jody
4 m/c pcos, on metformin ,hormonal imbalance
) that if I stayed on metformin for the first tri. it might reduce the risk of m/c. I've read a few studies that agree with that thought but some say it is not worth the risk (it is a cat. B pregnancy drug which means it is safe for rats but who knows about human babies but sure we will approve it 
). My Endo. did say that it was perfectly safe for the first 8 weeks though. Since the baby uses a yolk sac at that time for its main nutrition. Well good luck and I hope you get a BFP soon! Oh and Welcome to Families! 
just not knowing how long this cycle is going to be! i was hoping metformin would of started to work this cycle ive been on it for 4 weeks now going onto 5 weeks,
