Dr said my chances will change but ive been told that before too.... Has anybody else has a gastric bypass done?
Get ALL the information before you do it. You can't undo surgery. A lot of places now a days, hold "seminars" about weight loss surgery.
Has anyone had a weightloss surgery like Gastric sleeve or bypass. I wanted to know did it help far as pcos symptoms ?
I am actually getting the gastric bypass hopefully sometime in February. I have heard it was a cure for a lot of problems such as diabetes, heart disease, and some PCOS cases have been cured. Weight… read more
I’ve been talking to my doctor about how I haven’t gotten my period since April of 2017 & he’s been telling me that all these symptoms that I’ve been dealing with are all due to my hormones being imbalanced & that most of my current health issues could possibly be reversed if I lost weight. The more I do to try & lose weight, the more weight I actually end up gaining & it’s frustrating. Especially when I’m putting in all the work & energy & I’m getting results that are the complete opposite of… read more
My weight loss doctor said having the sleeve would help my hormone imbalance. He said they weren't exactly sure how it did it but it does. I had the gastric sleeve...
Has anyone in here had gastric ? Did it work well with your PCOS. It's major surgery and I'm afraid because of PCOS it won't be successful. Any thoughts, advice or stories would be greatly apprecited
Got approved for ozempic today :)
Does bariatric surgery help? I am getting a gastric sleeve done for weight loss, but I dont know anyone with PCOS who has had it done to ask

I'm not trying to get pregnant while my body and weight is unstable. I have no idea what kind I should even inquire about. Please let me know something.
I'm about to get gastric bypass in December and I plan on going back on it after my surgery.

Is the gastric band available in the uk and on the NHS. Thanks
You need to go private or so I was told
So I was just diagnosed with PCOS on my birthday March 30th. Today I had my follow up appointment and was basically told I'm fat and need to loose weight. I haven't been given any medication to help with my symptoms and was referred to a specialist. I have always struggled with diets and exercising. Has anyone found something they liked to help them lose weight that might help me?
I started Keto 4 months ago, which I have modified a bit, but still eat low carb and high protein/fat. Also very low sugar items. I’ve lost 30 lbs in the last 4 months 😁.
I am just on Metformin to help regulate my periods right now.
