Weight Loss to help with fertility??

maddie

Had faint lines all week but tests have not gotten darker, so thinking I’m out and I just had a bunch of indents per usual. I’m so sad, it was my 4th cycle on Letrozole & failed 😣 I also tried preseed & geritol this cycle (along with prenatals, metformin, etc). Still nothing.

My OB said next step is for me to lose weight and referred me to weight management. Wondering from others who has done this and what options are there? I’m already on a limited diet & on my feet at work all day. I’ve been taking insulin & metformin with no impact on my weight. I’m wondering if they are going to suggest something like ozempic.

Also wondering if anyone has had success with losing weight & getting pregnant? We did have some fertility testing and husband was fine but I’m not regularly ovulating (assuming due to being overweight). I should also say, in early 2023 when my husband and I first tried, we got pregnant RIGHT away, first cycle but it didn’t stick and I miscarried at 6 weeks. And that was without any meds. So I’m confused.

If you made it through all of this, thank you and PLEASE leave any experiences or info below!! I’m starting to look into things and will set up an appointment with weight management once my period starts. Also planning to further adjust diet & exercise 30 min daily.
