I agree it can be disheartening. Way to go on the 4 and a half stone! The bbt method is the Basal Body Temperature method. Basicly before you get out of bed you take your temperature vaginally every morning and recored it. The day after ovulation, you should see a three day sustained temp rise. This lets you know you ovulated. This is helpful in that after a few months you can see if you are ovulating and exactly when. Another issue if you are ovulating and still unable to get pregnant may be progesterone. Progesterone thickens the unterine lining in preparation for pregnancy. If this lining isn't optimal implantation can't take place. There is hope though! You are doing wonderful and your day will come ❤

I was on Metformin, Provera and Clomid when I fell pregnant with my two boys. I truly believe the metformin helped. I was overweight though and every bit of weight you can lose increases your chances of pregnancy....and it helped me lose a little weight - just enough not huge amounts but enough. Metformin helps you balance your blood sugar and insulin levels and these are what cause inflammation in your body.....so it makes sense that it would help create a more welcoming environment for bubba to come along. I wish you all the very best.

Honestly, get professional help. I spent two years on monthly injections, regular blood tests and scans. Ultimately ivf yielded a result. I wish I hadn't taken so long to start ivf.

Provera + (Clomid or Letrozole) that's where I have started next will be injections but get your ON to refer you to a Specialist which monitor to see what steps work best for you!!!
