in Health and Weight Loss
So... like many I’m sure, up until now my aim was to lose weight and look better (superficial I know). This has now changed... having had 3 recurrent miscarriages in the last 2 years and a low egg count, I’m now looking to perhaps undergo IUI/IVF. To maximise chances of this, I want to bring my BMI down from 28/29 to under 25 to maximise chances of conceiving and maintaining a pregnancy.

Would be really interested in hearing anyone else’s similar experiences linked to trying to improve #fertility. 👍

    No experience to share, but truly wish you the best of luck and success not just with the weight loss but also with conceiving and such <3

    Hi there - I was searching for IVF posts as I’m in a similar boat (thought there might be more on here, maybe I’ve not found them). My BMI is just over 29, aiming to get to 25 for the same goal. Sorry to hear about your fertility challenges, and hope you’re on your way to that BMI target. I’m not sure how to do it, but do add me as a friend if you want.
