[quote=Anonymous]I am overweight, very much so with a high BMI. Some fertility clinics (the BIG ones) only go by statistics. If you fall into this nice box than we will treat you and we will more than likely have success and we can rave about our wonderfull statistics. Well let me tell you, if you are obese and want a baby than look at other smaller centers in the area. Don't give up hope just b/c weight is an issue. Yes, it is true that weight can have an affect on fertility, but it also may not! I wasted months and months waiting to lose weight to try to "fit into the box" and be treated by a well known clinic and I was getting more and more depressed. Talking to my OB was a great thing for me, b/c they were appauled that the big clinic refused to help me! They referred me to another (wonderfull!!!) place who agreed to work with me and ... I am now 7 wks along :) So, I just wanted to give the obese women some hope ..... keep trying![/quote]
