you start to lose weight? Have you all experienced TOM coming earlier since losing weight? It makes sense that fat carries so much estrogen and that losing it would cause a shift in hormone levels but I don't remember this in my 20s and no I'm not postmenopausal or in perimenopause. I've been tested out the yen yang for everything going through fertility treatments. Just wanna get your experience about TOM and losing weight. Thanks. Hope

Hi Hopeangel,

I know that gaining weight while on The Pill, then going off the Pill can have an affect on fertility and TOM, but haven't noticed that weight loss makes it come any earlier. You are correct though that fat is an estrogen carrier, so it seems reasonable. I'm hoping mine comes more regularly with weight loss.

One of the things you may enjoy is charting. There is a WONDERFUL book out called Taking Charge of Your Fertility, www.ovusoft.com It is very exciting to learn your cycle!
I have one! http://forums.ovusoft.com/chart.asp?id=atara2

I haven't noticed it coming earlier - but this month it came almost 2 weeks late! I normally have horrible PMS symptoms, back goes out, water retention, hyperventilating for three days prior (and stops immediately once everything starts; weird) huge mood swings, and cramps that would put me in bed for three days. NONE of that this month, still very bad cramps, but the excersize and water, and vitamins, I think has really lessened them. My head feels clearer than normal at this time, and a huge victory - I noticed by the third day, that what appeared to be "hot flashes" complete with major water works (2 seconds, and I was drenched from top of my head to my shoulders) those have completely stopped! Now almost 3 weeks into it, it's not a fluke - they are gone!!! I still occasionally get the flash of heat, but no waterworks follow. That is probably the biggest bonus so far - it was miserable going through that, and very embarrasing. And to not have the depression and anger swings, has really been a blessing this month. I could always tell, and count down from 2 weeks to the date, from all the symptoms that it was near. This time, no clue - especially the weird hyperventilating panic type attacks that would go on for three days prior, then vanish. It's truly a miracle!!!

Dittos to that Steph! The best book I ever read on making babies. I chart for free online at fertilityfriend. I definitely notice hormone swings when I have a big loss or gain in weight!

Hi, I am getting back on track with JC after losing 47 pounds, and gaining back almost 37. Rather than frustrate myself, I'm just going to focus on moving forward and not looking back. Good health is what is important and giving up is not an option.
