Hi

I have asked this question before, but I thought I would ask again.

I have been TTC since OCT 2007.

My husband and I have both had tests and all is fine.

My doctor has given me a referral to a FS now.

I need to lose weight tho, so I worry that if I go to the FS he will send me away and say to lose weight first. I am trying hard to lose weight.

I have been speaking to a Natropath also, who said she could maybe help me with TTC and also lose weight.

MY QUESTION:

Should I go and see the FS

OR

Should I go to the Natropath and try that first?

THANKYOU xoxox

I don't think there is a right or wrong answer for this and it depends on your preference. My preference would be to see the naturopath first since it is a more gentle approach and since your gp has not found anything wrong perhaps your body just needs a gently nudge in the right direction. Also, if you see a naturopath and don't have any success then you can see the FS but if you see the FS first you probably will end up never seeing the naturopath. As I said, the it's really up to your personal preference. Best of luck!

Thank you, yes my first thoughts were to see the FS and see how I go, as yes its a more gentle approach and she can help with both losing weight and TTC. I thoughht I would see wat other ppl had experienced.

Thanks again. x

hey KMS,
Im guessing it would take a few months to get into the FS so i would probably, make the appt and see a naturopath in the meantime... Would should be able to see results from the naturopath within that time and that way u dont have to decide the naturpath isnt working (but :fingerscrossed: she can) and then wait the few months to see the FS... if they dont have a long wait, u could always see if u can book an appt for sometime in the more distant future

Natropath
I love my narto, altho we havent started TTC yet (only 1 month to go) but she has really helped me lose weight and get my body balenced. I would go see a natro, you will be really suprised as to what they have to say. I found out heaps about my body and this has really helped me.
I hope you have some luck

Hi

Thanks for your reply

I have called the FS at lunch today, just to see what the wait is etc, so will wait to hear back.

Thanks again. x
