The medicines you’ve taken have helped you to get pregnant and won't harm the embryo. You may continue taking metformin and cyclogest (progesterone derivatives) to prevent miscarriage. Women with poly-cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) beside sterility, also have an increased risk for miscarriage. An evaluation of the early pregnancy can be done by measuring the level of human chorion-gonadotropin (HCG) in your body. HCG-levels should double once every 2 days. Regular ultrasound-scans are also necessary for monitoring the health of your child.
You can consult your obstetrician for an expert opinion and follow up.
