Currently getting on with no women (2,2,3)

I believe the answer is:

up to now

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'currently' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adverbs. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'on with no women' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'on' could be 'to' and 'to' is located in the answer.
'with' could be 'w' (abbreviation) and 'w' is located in the answer.
'no' could be 'o' (O resembles 0) and 'o' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'getting' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for up to now that I've seen before include "So far" , "Hitherto" .)
