Hi, I think you should do a urine pregnancy test at home. If positive consult a doctor. If negative, you can take some medicines for inducing periods. In pcod, ovulation doesn't happen. Thus, pregnancy doesn't occur and periods get delayed. You have to take medicines for growth of your follicles and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound. When follicles reach a size more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles. Be in contact with your husband for 2 to 3 days after injection. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that. You can try like that for 3 to 6 months. Also do a thyroid profile and prolactin levels for yourself and a semen analysis of your husband. If it doesn't work, then you have to go for tubal patency test and thereafter IUI. Metformin alone will not help you in conceiving. Hope I have answered your question.
