Metformin is just a pill you take three times a day, its $4.00 at walmart without insurance. They need to test your fasting insulin with it. If its just a FBS they don't always find it. Also, when I got my bw done, they said my insulin was just a little bit above normal, but if I was ttc, it was way above normal. They like to see it lower if you're ttc, because if its too high, it will mess with your other hormones. I used fertilityfriend.com (free!) to chart. You can get a basal body thermometer from walmart for cheap as well. Oh, and I swear by preseed. We used it with our first, as do a lot of women I know with PCOS, and they all got pregnant. Its a sperm friendly lube. It helps get the swimmers to your egg. I've done a ton of research (and had lots of experience) so don't be afraid to ask me anything! Good luck!
