I’d be thrilled to hear from anyone who is doing 5:2 and also on IVF treatment?
I’m currently trying to get my TSH down naturally before my next transfer.
Any comments welcome 🙂

Hi Cloudlady,
I’m not at the same stage but I have my first appointment with ivf consultant next month. I plan to do this diet for the next couple of months to hopefully lose some unwanted pounds and get my body in the best shape for the difficult times ahead.
I wish you luck for your next transfer and I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed for you x

Its hard to know what to do for the best. I have Googled fasting and ivf and it seems that its not at all recommended. Well I suppose the only opinion that matters is your own.
I hope you manage to get your TSH down with fasting even though I have no idea what it is yet.

Hi cloudlady.
I am hoping you are still on this site as I was wondering how you went with IVF? I am starting my first cycle and have been fasting since March this year. I know through reading the book that fasting is not advisable if trying to get pregnant but I have been wondering when in my IVF cycle I should stop fasting. How did you go with your IVF, in particular when did you decide to stop fasting?
