Hi, thanks for posting your query on Ask a doctor service.
PCOS - polycystic ovarian syndrome cause irregular menstruation and metformin helps in regularization of menstrual cycle and it also helps in lowering BMI. Minimum of 6 months of regular treatment with metformin is required. Generally, urine test for pregnancy can be detected after 10 days of your first missed period.
I would also suggest you to get your Thyroid hormone levels.
Also exercise helps in regularization of your periods and try to avoid stressful situations if any.
