Should I lose weight in preparation?

Question

Hubby and I are hoping to begin our IVF journey soon. We had our consultation meet and greet last week. I am 5'3" and fluctuate between 142 and 145lbs. (All an innertube around my waist.) The only area I really want to lose. Should I start any special cleanse diet or do anything specific in preparation??

Answer

Losing weight isn’t necessarily the best in all cases but I would evaluate your health and eating and improve that as much as possible before starting.

Answer

Thank you. I plan to talk to my doctor just wondered if anyone else has had to do anything specific.  I'm just so nervous about all this! Lol

Answer

Healthy diet would be good. Don’t do anything extreme. Seek a fertility nutritionist or dietician for help.

Answer

I wouldn't

Answer

Your Dr should be able to answer this better. Some women should lose (or gain) weight, and some women don’t have to.
