We have been trying for over a year to conceive, I have PCOS and have been on metformin for 2 months now and I had my first period after them being absent since November. I’ve always used the LH strips but I’ve never ever had a positive surge, I’ve tried twice a day and not my first morning urine and I was wondering if they can ever be ‘wrong’ I guess I’m looking to see if I’m the only one!
I’ve never had any more than a very faint second line and it’s stressing me out.

I’ve been on metformin XR for almost 2 months now, no side effects with XR and I’ve just upped to 1500mg daily. I have PCOS and always found it really difficult to lose weight despite eating clean and weight training 3 times a week, HIIT 2 times a week. I thought after starting this I would see the scales begin to drop but I’ve not lost a single pound since starting, I know it’s not a weight loss drug but after reading other reviews a part of me had my hopes up. I have also just taken my first period since November last year so it must be helping in regard to this but I also look like I am pregnant with a swollen belly with how bloated I am.
