Hello ma'am and welcome.

Metformin will help in regularization of your irregular menstrual cycle (which I am assuming is present due to polycystic ovaries) and will also promote weight loss, which in turn will increase the chances of conception. But metformin will not directly contribute to conception.

Once your menstrual cycle has regularized, your doctor can shift you over to clomiphene citrate which should promote conception directly.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
