Hi Priyadarshini,

Welcome to HCM.
Glyciphage is the correct one. They have given you the right one. You need not worry. Check the strength. It comes in 250 mg., 500 mg. and 850 mg. strengths. See if it is of the same strength as prescribed by the doctor.
This treatment will certainly help you to conceive provided every thing else is within normal limits including your husband's semen analysis.
Wish you early conception.
