Possible thyroid problem

Carmen
So I got off the pill in Oct after 4 years. Had two normal cycles and then after December, stopped having a period, instead just spotting a few days before I was supposed to get my period. Took some at home pregnancy tests and they were negative. Finally went to the doctor yesterday and it was concluded that since I am slightly overweight that was the cause of me not having a period. Also, after getting some blood drawn, I have a slight thyroid problem which probably explains why I had trouble losing weight this past year. The doctor recommended that I go on a high protein, high fiber, low carb diet. Has anyone else had thyroid/weight problems affect them when TTC?
