Hallow Dear,

Pivox contains Metformin. It is a medicine for treatment of Diabetes. It is not a medicine which initiates ovulation. However, this medicine helps the other medicines like Clomiphene citrate or HMG/hCG combination to effect the ovulation.

This combination is effective particularly in Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) wherein the levels of insulin also are increased. Metformin helps controlling Insulin levels.

Though Levocetrizine does not affect ovulation or maturing the follicles, it is not advised in early pregnancy. Hence, if you are attempting for the pregnancy, discontinue it if you can and take a Gynaecologist's opinion on it.

I hope this helps you.
