Welcome to the forum Hope you get to see much hope and positivity here. You did a great job by losing weight. Because this is one of the thing that hurdle in conceiving. I have hared about so many women's having complications on conceiving as they were overweight. So staying fit and healthy should be your first priority. As far as the question for the supplement is concerned. Have you asked any of the doctors over this thing? You must consult your doctor before coming up to any of the decision. And I am so sure that considering your doctor's advice would be of much benefit to you. Hope to see you conceiving soon. And I wish you a very short visit to forums. Baby dust!!

I am fine. Thanks for asking. How are you doing? I think you must consider it. Losing weight will increase your chance of conceiving. You may try going for a walk daily. You can also try yoga at home. It is quiet helpful in losing weight. I wish you luck in future. Stay strong and healthy.

Hey Rihana. I hope things are going well for you. I'm glad that you managed to lose alot of weight. I'm really proud of you for that. Taking supplements can be a tad harmful for the body so i would not recommend taking them if you are trying to concieve. They can claim to have good effects but sometimes the bad outweighs the good. Make sure to take regular visits to your clinic. An experienced doctor should be able to help you more with your situation. Keep trying and eventually everything is gonna work out for you guys.

Hello, Dear.do not need to take tension. You are one of those people who are not ready to give up. You are ready to take up the challenge. You are not a loser. Your courage and the spirit are worth praising. I feel that you are facing the problems due to the extra weight. I'm also overweight. there are many good clinics in euroop.there will guide you properly. you must have to consult them or any other doctor. They will give you the good suggestion. You do excise and take healthy diet. Good luck.

Hello Rihana, How you feeling? So sorry to hear about your problem. This takes a lot from a woman. But you are a brave woman. You didn't lose your hope that is quite inspiring for us. My friend had gone through the same. First, she suffered conceiving complications right after 2years of marriage. And then her first pregnancy ended in MC. She was so depressed and heartbroken. So we searched for another option. She has decided to opt for surrogacy. We searched for the best clinic Biotexcom. She contacted them and going to visit their open session. They have arranged it in London in the middle of August to answer the queries of people related to infertility and its solutions.

"To my perceptions, I believe that supplements are never been that much effective. But yes alternatives are. And for this particular case, I would ask you to consult your doctor. I could just hope that you would be having prescribed medicines. Unless all of such things could make a negative impact on your TTC days. I would pray that might not be the case. One more thing always consults the doctors or clinics whom you may trust. As if I am kept hearing about all the false news and the frauds that some of the clinics are doing with the infertile individuals. Stay safe. Stay happy. "

Dear Rihanna! I think you should stop taking supplements and make your body to take some rest and let it come to the normal functioning. After that, you can try to conceive. On the other hand, you can also adopt some alternate methods like surrogacy or IVF. Both the methods are really helpful. If you want to have any of it then the only thing that I would like to make you aware is to be careful from some fake clinics. Some clinics like Lotus are looting people in this field. They do not have any concern about someone's life. So try to find the best clinic for yourself. I hope it your dreams will come true one day.

Yes, you have taken the right decision to join this forum. My friend, I will suggest your surrogacy. So there is no need to take pills to conceive. The most important thing is that you should choose the best clinic for your treatment. There is the worst clinic like Lotus. I have read many bad reviews about this clinic on different forums. They are worst in dealing with infertility issues. There is no need to waste your money and time on such clinic. There is a good clinic in Eastern Europe. They are best in dealing with surrogacy. They are wonderfully doing their job. Their services are less expensive. You should go there. Wish you good luck with that. Baby dust to you

Welcome, Rihana. I hope you are doing fine. Tell me first why did you take supplements? Don't you know, continuous intake of these supplements can cause trouble in conceiving? Please stop taking them otherwise you will have to face consequences. Don't lose heart and keep trying. Maybe you get pregnant. But if you are having trouble while conceiving then you should go for the alternatives. Consult with the doctor and do whatever the doctor says. May God bless you with a baby soon. My prayers are with you. Good luck.

Hi Rihana! I am glad to hear that you care about your health and want to grow your family. Taking supplements and TTC is not good at the same time. You should quit taking them. If I talk about my situation I was also facing PCOS due to overweight. The good thing is that now I am in the good state of health and lost my weight. Good luck to you too.

Hello. Hope you are well. I think it is better if you leave the supplements. It is better to be safe than sorry. You shouldn't take anything like those supplements these days. If you are on any medication, do talk to your doctor about the side effects of those. I really hope you conceive. If it still doesn't happen, I'd suggest you go see your doctor. See what the problem is. You might be prescribed some fertility medicines. It works for some people. My doctor prescribed me some meds and I was suggested ttc for another six months. I hope this works for you. Let us know how it works out. Hope this helped.

The first time is always a bit hard. I can see why you're so tense. It's okay to feel this way. Don't worry too much and keep the faith! If you want more help, I would suggest you visit a fertility clinic. They will definitely help you out. Good luck on your journey. Hopefully, things really do get better for you!

Haha, I can understand your questions. Yeah, it's definitely your first time! It's okay to feel a little confused. There's nothing to worry about though. I hope you don't remain stuck in this journey for as long as I have. It can get really frustrating! I hope you get a bit of good fortune! Hopefully, you will, as well. You deserve the absolute best in life. My only advice would be that you stay in constant contact with your doctor. It's really important to do that. A professional opinion goes a long way. Apart from that, act on the doctor's advice and improve your diet. Hopefully, there won't be anything serious to block you from getting a BFP. Good luck on the journey! Hopefully, it's a short and successful one. x

Hello, Rihana. How are you? I hope you're okay. TTC is always an exciting time. Some would call it nerves. Wouldn't say either of them are wrong. There's a thin line between the two. I remember my experience, actually. It was more desperate than anything. I was constantly hoping for good news. Infertility can make the TTC a lot more difficult. It finally happened for me, though, when I got the BFP. Sadly my happiness lasted only a few weeks as I miscarried. I was really sad. I could've given up, but I pride myself for going on. I'm undergoing IVF, these days. The two-week wait is killing, but I'm hopeful! I hope things work out for you, as well.

Hey, I hope you are well. I am glad that you have been working on yourself. If you are just overweight due to which you are unable to conceive. Then I think you should just concentrate on losing weight. If supplements are helping keep taking them. Other than have you visited the RE? It is important to visit the doctor and let them know the whole situation. If you have been trying for over a year this step is necessary. Good luck to you. I hope things get better. Just know that visiting a good doctor is really important. That will increase your chances of success. Other than that know that several clinics are present from whom you can select. Therefore, there is no need to worry. Sending baby dust your way.
