My Dr appt breakdown

A couple weeks ago I had an appointment with my endocrinologist. I see her periodically to check my thyroid levels and she is aware of us trying to have a baby. My cycles are between 32 and 42 days long and that can be really frustrating. I sought her guidance to see if there was anything that could be done and make sure it wasn't related to my thyroid. She said that my thyroid levels looked fine and didn't think they were related. She asked how my weight was doing and I pretty much just broke down in her office. It was so embarrasing- I had no reason to be crying like that. I explained to her the stress I was under with work and the whole reproductive issues and the fact that no matter what I seemed to do from a weightloss standpoint it didn't seem to help. I know I could be doing better but I wish there was an easier solution. She asked if I wanted to see a dietician and I agreed. She also stated that I should see the OB to see what could be done about my long cycles. With that, I felt hopeless but was at the same time, hopeful for some answers. My OB appt was sched for April 13th.
