A member asked:
What is the likelihood of me being able to conceive when i have absent and inconsistent periods - i am 25 slightly overweight i suffer from anaemia ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The likelihood of conception depends in part on the cause of the irregular periods and anemia. Regardless of the cause, correcting the anemia and loosing weight will help. PCOS can be reversed with weight loss at times. Thyroid disease can be corrected with medication if that is the problem. See your doctor to find out the cause since even if you conceive, the underlying problem can cause trouble.
