For most women, losing 5% of
their body weight is enough to kickstart their menstrual cycle. I have severe
PCOS and have never taken any drugs for it as I can manage it fine with low
carbing, exercise and occasional trips to my naturopath.
There are so many paths to
explore before heading for invasive, and often humiliating, procedures. I'm
happy to talk offlist with you.
Best,
J

Madelaine,
I'm sure you have already discussed that obesity is a
primary cause of infertility.
It's amazing how successful weight loss is in
achieving pregnancy when other more complex treatments &
diagnoses have failed though.

laparoscopy
I have a patient that I am treating for
infertility. Her gyno has recommended she have a laparoscopy to investigate
possible causes. She is feeling uncomfortable with this procedure due to the
risks. She has also been told that being overweight may
also increase these. Can anyone advise or assist me please.
Are there any other safe procedures avaiable to determine the
same??
