So far my tests don’t show insulin resistance that I know of but the doctor was talking about putting me on metformin anyways. Anybody else benefitted from that? Did metformin regulate your cycle even if you didn’t have insulin problems?
No problem @A myPCOSteam Member ! Anything else you want to know, just ask i’ll be happy to answer if i can! I will say, if you’re trying for a baby, you may end up with gestational diabetes due to… read more
Anyone ordered these before and gotten accurate results? (Follicle stimulating hormone tests). I don’t want to order them, get false results and then start panicking! Thank you!
And intermittently throughout the month…I guess they’re like hot flashes? Idk?
I feel like I have them everyday but I don’t think that’s normal :(
Hi, is anyone taking either of these for weight loss? My doctor wants to get me down in weight as I am obese now. At least 50lbs by next year. She suggested wegovy. I am waiting to decide to go on this until I see an endocronologist again. I am 45 right now and all methods of weight loss have been harder than before. I had a baby at 41.

Pcos makes it hard to lose weight but when you’re in your 30s it’s even harder
Highly recommend allergy free diet for at least 30days! Gluten, dairy, soy, corn, egg, and peanut free helped me drop a lot of weight and feel better. I have to stick to this diet very strictly… read more
My pcos causes cravings weight gain and weight loss issues and docs claim I’m overweight for family planning
hi ladies,
when I went to the loo earlier, I heard a clot that had come out of me and landed in the toilet.
I was wondering if it could mean that either I've already got an ovarian cyst or if another one is starting to appear.
I have also noticed that my periods have gone back to being really heavy and painful again like they were before my laparoscopic cystectomy just over 2 years ago.

Hi everyone
I hadn't had a proper period (the few I had in the run-up to Christmas last year were more blink-and-you-miss them and a heck of a lot lighter than I'm used to them being. Last month and the month before they had completely disappeared, but then they suddenly reappeared with a vengeance as the reappeared with yesterday or the day before and they were really light like they were at the end of last year, but when I went to the loo this morning when I woke up they'd returned to how… read more
