Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
Most probably you are suffering from from PCOS which is common reason for delayed periods and infertility. Insulin resistance is one of the underlying pathology leading to PCOS so many clinicians prescribe metformin as empirical treatment. You may not find your blood sugar raised but still there may be intrinsic problem like insulin resistance leading to PCOS. If you are overweight try to lose weight by diet control and exercise. You need to undergo few hormonal tests to come at diagnosis. Trust your doctor and continue treatment.take care
