Hello ladies, was just wanting some advice really. I've just stepped on the scales today and despite having completely lost my appetite since my bfn I've put on 4lbs in a week! How does that happen? Does anyone else struggle with weight & pcos? Could it be a reaction to the IVF drugs...?

Ah your not alone, I have PCOS to and can go to the gym eat clean and still lose nothing. Definitely could be down to the drugs to when I last went for my EC they weighed me and said they couldn't use my weight from my last apt as they expect women to put on weight during IVF x

Oh no! As if PCOS isn't annoying enough now it's making me a chubster haha xx

There are loads of threads on here about people putting on weight after ivf. It seems to go with the territory, unfortunately.
