Hi all, I'm 34, I've been TTC for about 2.5 years and had two CPs within the first year, since then nothing. After the second I didn't get a proper period for 12 months, since then (Nov 24) I've had 4 periods - so total probably 12 periods over 30 months. I track my ovulation / temperature each month so I'm confident those months I did ovulate, it's just very irregular (but getting better!) I was referred to my local NHS clinic and they've done various internal scans and blood tests, partner also had a sperm analysis and no major issues found - slightly low volume but still within acceptable levels. The clinic have said that it's "unexplained infertility" and the first step would be ovulation induction - but I'm over the BMI threshold of 35, then their IVF threshold is 30.
I'm mainly here to ask, while I'm loosing weight (10kg down so far, probably about another 10 to go until I get to 35 BMI), is there anything else I can be doing through GP or privately to investigate my lack of a cycle or if there's any other underlying issues? I've heard about people getting tested for blocked tubes, or maybe I need to push for more testing to investigate PCOS (I have history of very irregular cycles, but it was mostly managed with contraception for my 20s)? I've just been doing nothing for around a year now as I lose weight, and I think I need to be more proactive. I'm in Newcastle if anyone has any suggestions for clinics etc. I can go to.
