Keto and PCOS

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Caro, MI

I've been doing keto for about a month now. I have a IUD in place as recommended by my OB because I dont have any type of a menstrual cycle. Ever sense I've started keto I've been experiencing cramps and spotting. I have an appointment on monday to have my IUD removed in Hope's to start a normal cycle and possibly conceive. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience or any pointers.
