Hi All,

THe naturopath said that the main problem I seem to have with the PCOS (aside from the silly acne and hair...) is the insulin resistance. Even though my bloods have always been normal she thinks that the ups and downs aren't helping things. So more regular protein with having something every 3 hours during the day. So this morning was small muesli along with an egg (not together!), I'll have nuts mid morning and afternoon and a normal lunch/dinner. She goes with small changes first, I'm sure there will be more to come. But I'm determined to lose the weight I've gained in the last 12 months. I've previously lost 26kg on WeightWatchers which was great, but have gained 6 this year without changing much. Just since coming off the pill.

OP sounds like some really positive signs your way - fingers crossed! In fact it sounds pretty positive all round on here atm. I'm running off this morning so still can't respond to everyone but just sending all the good vibes around!

I can just quickly say that my FS says about 20% for both OI and IUI, just that the mechanism is different so some things work better for different people. And obviously IUI's more invasive. IVF is also about a 20% chance. So he starts with the least invasive (OI) and moves along from there. Interestingly for the lucky ones who can do this naturally, odds are more like 25%. All the drugs change the mucous consistency in the uterus making it harder for implantation. Wow, the things you pick up!

I hope to hear some good news about Os and BFPs soon! Good BT to you all...
