Hello,
Duromine helps when there is excess adipose tissue but is not advised for just getting slimmer. It is true that post-pregnancy weight gain is slightly difficult to lose and needs lot of motivation. In your case, benefit would definitely be there if you can lose as much weight as possible as fertility rates improve with lessened weight. You have not mentioned your height but your BMI should not be more than 23-24. Try consulting a dietitian and also a gynecologist for further advice. You also need to exercise even if you use Duromine. Good luck.
