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. I started taking a low dose of inositol for the insulin resistance and have cut back on eating and watching the carbs and haven't lost anything. However… read more
I highly recommend trying an allergen free diet if you don’t already! I started one about 10yrs ago around the first time I was diagnosed and that helped me drop weight (without counting calories or… read more
My doctor recommend a laparoscopic ovarian wedge resection on both ovaries. As well as looking for and possibly excising endometriosis. I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2017 but have had symptoms since my first period at 10 years old. So, this has been a loooooooong journey for me. I am 26 now and finally feel like I am being listened to by my doctor about the pain, discomfort, and overall poor quality of life.
Has anyone had this procedure done? What should I expect? How was your experience? Any… read more
Ohhhh I see. Thanks for explaining! (A friend of mine had everything removed except her ovaries as well for a different hormone problem too-def seemed to help her as well) I was just curious! I am so… read more
Hello,
so this is my first time with mirena and i was given it to help ease my PCOS/adenomyosis/fibroid symptoms. I'd have spotting sometimes but it would normally go away that day.
But i'm at like, the 10 month mark, and this week i've had a very light bleed on and off for about 7 days with some mild cramps (either normal mild or based on what i used to get) and i'm wondering if that's normal?
My "cycle" before this was like 2 months non stop then like 6 months off. no real consistency… read more
Hi! I've had a Mirena IUD since 2019! I had a normal cycle for 11 to 13 yrs then it's was completely random and I'd have very painful back and cramps, heavy bleeding for a overnight pad in the day… read more
I recently started using Nuvaring and i have found that my emotions are all over the place. This os the first birth control i have used in about 15 years so i dont remember how i did the first time around. I have been way more sensitive and crying like crazy. It is driving me insane. Please advise...
Yes, the hightened hormones really can effect someone emotionally. Think of a pregnant woman - she can easily be emotional in any direction.
I seem to bloat up after eating. It doesn't always happends, but it seems to appear when I'm more stressed out. It can get quite intense... I can lose up to one pant size in 24h and then gain it back in a couple days time. I tried keeping a food vs bloating journal, but it just happens whenever. I even started recording the days event to try figure what was going on, bUT still no clue... I was wondering if it happened to anyone else, and what they had done to deal with this, as I am getting… read more
Yes…this is what I’ve been struggling with most of all for the past 6 months…I can’t seem to escape the bloating. The diet I follow HELPS but does not totally fix it. Sometimes it just hits me out of… read more
I struggle with my weight so badly. It's frustrating I eat small portions, exercise, and eat mostly non- processed food, I don't know what else to do I lost a bunch and then gained it all back and then some and I didn't do anything differently. I've also had 6 miscarriages. I'm so frustrated with my body and even with antidepressants I feel suicidal. People are so mean to me because of my weight and try as I might I just keep going up. I was on metformin and it made my depression and anxiety go… read more
I know I recommend this to alot of people but it’s only because I’ve only ever heard positive feedback from trying this diet and I’ve experienced tremendous relief from this diet as well
It almost… read more
