[quote=Anonymous]They all will work with you. But they will possibly deny you IVF if you are severely overweight. I 42.5 and very overweight, in the 300lb range and was turned down for IVF and NCIVF by dominion. I spoke to Dr. Gordon. He was nice about it, but still said no. I worked with CFA (Dr. Abbasi) for 2 years and she said nothing of my weight except that losing some would definitely help. But she did not make it a big deal about it. I ended up getting pregnant naturally after a couple of failed IVF's, and various IUI procedures. I wouldn't wait. You and your partner can get the work-up/testing and maybe try some IUI's (weight does not matter for IUI). Good Luck.[/quote]
