Madelaine, I'm sure you have already discussed that obesity is a primary cause of infertility. It's amazing how successful weight loss is in achieving pregnancy when other more complex treatments & diagnoses have failed though.   Brenda   ----- Original Message ----- From: Madelaine Akras To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Friday, July 29, 2005 10:19 PM Subject: [ozmidwifery] laparoscopy I have a patient that I am treating for infertility. Her gyno has recommended she have a laparoscopy to investigate possible causes. She is feeling uncomfortable with this procedure due to the risks. She has also been told that being overweight may also increase these.  Can anyone advise or assist me please. Are there any other safe procedures avaiable to determine the same??   Madelaine Akras Naturopath
