Hi there...I just started browsing in this site over the last few weeks and have just decided to begin posting!
I am looking for buddies in a similar situation as mine. I have been TTC for 2.5+ years without success. We have unexplained infertility -- DH's semen has been tested and is OK. I have had a laporoscopy (some endometriosis removed in June 2005), HSG (clear tubes) and am currently on my 4th month of clomid. I had an early m/c in March 2005. My blood tests do not suggest PCOS but my OB-GYN continues to bring it up when I visit due to some acne that I have on my neck. (I've always had acne, not so much on my face, but always have a small cluster on my neck that comes and goes). I don't have any of the other usual symptoms and ovulate like clockwork each month. I have typical 28-30 day cycles.
I don't think I'd be considered overweight (I'm 5'7" and 146 lbs) but I carry all of my weight in my tummy area and I'm wondering if losing this will have any impact on my infertility. I have been resisting losing these 20lbs because I always figured if I did get pregnant, it wouldn't matter...but now that this dream is not materializing, I've decided to try to take the weight off to feel good and not always have to dress to hide my tummy!! I've just started WW at home and am down 4 lbs in 2 weeks. I've always exercised but not always regularly so I am trying to commit to a regular routine (I have a Curves membership and go to an aerobics class).
So if anyone can relate to either my infertility or weight loss goals, I would love to hear from you!
Thanks!!
