Default Re: Birth control pills and no weight loss

Hi Guys,

I posted a question recently in the diabetes and main forum regarding diabetes, atkins and pregnancy. I am diabetic and although not formally diagnosed suspect I also have PCOS since I have more than half of the symptoms plus I was only able to concieve my last child after taking metformin.

Anyway because of blocked fallopian tubes due to my last c-section my husband and I are looking at doing IVF to have another child. The thing is to do it in my area I would have to go on birth control tablets for a few months. The clinic only does transfers every 3 months in our area and therefore needs all the women to be on birth control to get thier cycles in sync. I've never taken oral birth control before and am also worried that it might also slow or stop my weight loss. I sincerely hope not.

Therese
