I've been on it years. 500g x3 per day. It was horrible at first but I only get a 'dodgy belly' if I eat too much crap which serves me right really. It's not really helped with weight but my ovaries don't have cysts anymore. I ovulate as normal. I have conceived and lost 7 times now, only 2 of which were natural conceptions in the last year. I asked my GP recently if it was the best thing for me and he said yes. I asked my gynae consultant and he just kept harping on that IVF was the only thing that would get me pregnant (will be re-raising this at next follow up appointment as this is technically wrong).
