Leg Pain?
A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭

Have any of you Cysters experienced leg pain with PCOS? I have pain in the back of my thighs running from just under my buttocks down to me knees. Gets worse if I sit in a chair that isn't well cushioned or if i lay a certain way for a while. Some days it's awful. Other days its minor. It's a very dull, stiff, and achy kind of pain.

I’ve been experiencing the same pain this past week. Went to see my gyno today and he said the pain is not related to the PCOS. Cvchester is right about a possible nerve. My gyno referred me to a physical therapist to help me come up with stretches to help lessen the pain.

Online says typically it only effects one side, but since it says typically and not only I'm going to assume it's possible? I'd definitely get it checked out, no need to be in pain 😞

Could it possibly be your sciatic nerve? If it gets irratated it can have the pain down the butt and leg like you're describing. There are leg stretches you can do to help but you may need to go to your Dr and have it checked out.

It could be a nerve getting pitched.
