Weight loss & Pregnancy!?!?

I'm just curious if anyone here has struggled to conceive while being over weight then after loosing a substantial amount of the weight conceived within a short amount of time...only from loosing the weight naturally not with any substance or fertility med's.

My husband and I have been married almost 4 year's and have never tried to prevent becoming pregnant we even activity tried for the first year....shortly after we began seeking fertility testing after about another year of that they came to the conclusion that nothing is wrong with either of us...and wanted to give me clomid which I refuse to take bc even though I would love to conceive I more so want it to happen naturally and at a healthy weight....They then suggested loosing weight as it might help us so that's what I want to do. I'm just wanting to know if this has helped anyone here conceive.? Thank you for any help and if you don't have nothing nice or helpful to say then please just don't say anything. Thank you! :)

    I had a friend who lost a SIGNIFICANT amount of weight and she FINALLY got pregnant after trying for YEARS! It certainly worked for her. :)

    Unfortunately, for most of my friends who had trouble conceiving, weight loss alone was not enough and they ended up using fertility treatments after weight loss alone was unsuccessful. HOWEVER, that is not to say it doesn't work or isn't helpful. I would definitely recommend trying to lose weight before going with fertility treatment.s
