Negative Pregnancy Test, Gaining Weight, Have Problems Conceiving. What Could It Be?
I have a question regarding weight gain . I had a period in the beginning of June missed my July one and I was suppose to start again on the 29 of July and am late. I have taken a pregnancy test a week after my last missed period and it was negative. I have always had regular periods but have had a lot of problems conceiving. I have been gaining more weight than normal and have been watching what I eat yet I continue to gain. What else could it be? When should I be concerned and go see my doctor.

This is the right time to see the endocrynologist. Since irregular periods are present and Obese people commonly have insulin resistence or some times hypothyiodism which can be diagnosed by blood tests and treated with medications. It would be better to rule out these conditions, if they are not present then it would be lot easier to concieve.
Using ovulation prediction kit AND REDUCING WEIGHT would be a good idea for conception
also consult a Gyne before you start triying concieve
Hope this helps
