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

Hi everyone! It’s apparently very common to be slightly over weight when suffering with PCOS, unfortunately I’ve battled anorexia but I’ve managed to get my weight to 6St12 , I’m 24 and I’m 5Ft4 . I can’t be the only woman with PCOS that’s suffered with GAINING weight, I NEED help and I was wondering what has worked for people to get into a healthy weight range to get their periods back on track and manage to ovulate and hopefully conceive ?? Love to hear from anyone!! Xxxxx

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...

Has anyone ever experienced overwhelming anxiety and depression with PCOS? For the last couple months my ability to handle stress and anxiety is nada...I just feel overwhelmed with everything. I've also noticed in the past couple weeks I have uncontrollable crying episodes.

I wake up at 6 am naturally and feel very energetic then 2 hours later I feel so tired, just wondering if it’s a hormone thing.

I used to have semi-regular periods every 4-6 weeks. Took Nexplanon, gained 60 pounds in a year, and didn't get but one period while I was on it. Now no period in over a year and a half since I had Nexplanon taken out. Diagnosed with PCOS when I went to the OBGYN trying to get my period back to have babies. No success yet, trying vitamins and supplements. Has anyone gotten their cycle back after weight loss or procedures or taking supplements? I know there are success stories with having babies… read more

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
