I was on Metformin to lose weight, but honestly I can say that it takes more than a drug.  If you want to lose weight, you need to learn to eat healthier, better proportions and not under stress.  Make sure this drug does not interfere with conception as well.  If you are 138 pounds (63kgs) than doens't seem to me that you are overweight at all, depending on how tall you are.  The question though was does over weight cause an issue for conceiving.  Yes, it can, but if what I am reading is correct, I wouldn't see that as being overweight.  How tall are you?
