Does metformin hydrochloride helps in pcos and getting pregnant
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
For some: Patients, yes it does. It is not a miracle cure (or even a fertility drug) and should only be used under a doctor's supervision in appropriately selected women. Talk with your doctor to learn more about whether it might be good for you.

Yes: Metformin is an Insulin sensitizing agent. It lowers the Insulin spikes during food consumption which ultimately lowers male hormone levels and helps to control weight gain. This will lead to improved ovulation.
