Hi ladies - today is my dpo 11 and I just got another bfn :( I'm devastated :( been trying so hard this month with gonal f, IUI and cyclogest and the effects are horrid. Aches/pains/exhaustion/bloating and some weight gain (some of the symptoms got me excited) Not sure how many more mnths I can keep at it. As you can see I'm feeling quite sorry for myself. Is it over for this mnth? Did anyone realistically still test positive after dpo11? My period is due in 2days

out of interest - is it the apetite loss or the affect on the insulin that supports the weight loss?

Oh yes - agree completely. Thing is - i eat very low carbs as is most of the time and i exercise everyday. but since being diagonised - im not losing at all or ballooning even - so im hoping the glucophage will help me lose the weight ASSUMING im working on it myself...
