Can Being Overweight Affect Positive Pregnancy Results?

Been trying to conceive for past 7 months. I am 5 7 205lbs but fairly active. Can being overweight affect getting a positive pregnancy result? I am normally a 31 day cycle atleast in the past 7 months I ve been tracking. Still no positive and it is day 35 of this cycle. Just curious if it will take longer to get the positive?

Hello,

Bodyweight and obesity has got no relation with pregnancy test.

You can go for a betaHCG test to confirm whether you are pregnant or not.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
