Unfortuantely metformin is not prescribed for inducing periods, it's prescribed for regulating insulin. Some peopel find they lose weight on it and as a result this can prompt their body to start ovulating/having periods again.
It's worth reading the International Guidelines for PCOS, especially chapter 4 around the use and effectiveness of things like the pill and metformin, and chapter 5 which relates to fertility specifically but may have something that ould help.
