Bmi and ivf

[Dorekhani]

Hi all ivfers💞💞

For ivf ideal bmi is 20 to 25..... 27

Has anyone success story of 29 and 30 bmi.. Is somebody is getting weight due to progynova and progesterone??

Plz share your experiences

I gained weight due to 4 rounds of IVF in 12 months - going into lockdown I lost 1/2 a stone and got my bmi back to closer 26 and I’m now pregnant with twins from my final transfer - who know if it made a difference? But there has been a lot of medical studies which has shown higher bmi equals less successful treatment (Hence why the NHS has a bmi cut off) so I would try and get your bmi down as much as you can

I also gained weight due to progynova and progesterone... specifically around my face neck nd Stomach...my face face has become somewhat boated...🙄

I don't gain weight on my face I gain it around my lower belly and on arms.. Every person has its own bad points of bubbling isn't??

If you don't mind what is your bmi??
