Hey guys!

I don't have cystic ovaries, although my RE thinks I may be insulin resistant. I have a hard time conceiving... have 35 day cycles- usually o'ing at around day 21, and I have recurrent m/c's. This is a last ditch effort to ttc #3. I can get pg naturally (w/out IUI or IVF) but we just have to try to get there and stay that way.

Anyways, I started Met after my last m/c in February. I probably started the met around the end of Feb, beginning of March. My last 2 cycles have been 28 day cycles!!!! I can tell things are working, BUT my skin hsa gotten horrible! I haven't had acne since highschool (I went on accutane back then) and all of the sudden... wham! It's been bad since I started Met. Has this happened to anyone else? I thought it would clear up acne, not create it! I know this means my hormones are shifting, but I'd just love to hear from anyone else with this reaction.

Thanks!
Holly
