Has anyone taken metformin and femara at the same time? I am currently taking metformin, but am considering taking the femara. Is this advised or not?

Hi hopefuljules, I've never taken Femara, but I do take Metformin & I've always used it in conjunction with other fertiltiy drugs like Clomid & now Repronex (an injectible). So yes, you can certainly use Metformin while using other fertility drugs. My understanding is the Met is supposed to enhance their affects. You have PCOS, I gather? Good luck. I HTH!

Yes I have PCOS, and I have never taken any fertility drugs, but I think I'm going to suggest it to my Dr. because nothing has happened yet with the metformin alone. Good Luck, and THANKS!!!

How long have you been taking the Repronex, and how long did you take Clomid? Have you been TTC for very long? I know every month seens like years now that we have been trying with no success!!!

This is my first cycle with the Repronex, before that I took Clomid 7 times, & O'ed on it 6 of those times. I've been trying since Aug. 2004. You're right though, each cycle seems to move sooo slowly, it's a frustrating process if you've been trying 9 mos. or 2 years or longer. How long have you been trying? Has your partner been tested yet? I highly suggest that. My DH has low morphology but a high count.

We have been trying for about a year. He hasn't been tested for anything yet, because we are pretty sure it's me and not him. Because I can't have a natural af. Well I hope something good for you soon. GOOD LUCK!
