200 g carbs is nothing. That is still quite low carb. Many "maintenance" phases in various low carb diets are 150 g carbs and many many people eat 300 g carbs all the time on a 2000 cal diet (in fact, that's what the US FDA recommends as a healthy diet!)
Why are you eating low fat ice cream and gluten free cookies? Is there a reason??
Being on metformin even if you WERE eating more like 300+ grams of carbs a day it wouldn't be delaying your ovulation. My gut is still that it's the estrogen patches. I don't KNOW that as a fact but it's the one thing that's different.
