trying to conceive
i have been overweight since like forever, and in the last two months I gained more weight due to some very stressful events in my life ,
i'm on clomid for the second month now as we r trying to get pregnant , I had 100 mg of clomid for 5 days this month ...according to my ovulation test I did ovulate ..
My question is, Could being obese or overweight prevent me from getting pregnant if i was ovulating ??

Hi!
If you were my patient, I would advise you that if you are ovulating you should be able to conceive if everything else is right (eg. his sperm count).
You might want to consider adding Metformin to your regimen--it reduces insulin levels and glucose levels if they are high. It can help with weight loss.
Hope this helps!
