Re: ADBB PCOS Support Group

Your entry was extrememly motivational for me. I've been battling the same thing since i was 14. It touched home with me. I've been put on bc pills, and hate them. I would like to have a baby someday, soon. My gym put me on Metformin b/c of my weight and risk for diabetes. Also, Metformin is supposed to help with the abscence of periods. I'm takin Provera too to get the monthy friend going again. I can't wait til there comes a time i can be completely off the pills entirely! Good luck to you!

Re: ADBB PCOS Support Group

hehehe okay.. after my third child i put on a lot weight and my weight would never go down.. instead it went up...I became depressed (ALOT)
The Doc checked everything even my thyroids and couldnt help me.. coz she didn't know what was wrong with me. offcourse in this year an a half after giving birth i didn't get my monthly friend at all.. i was't surprised coz it was never regular..
I got a urine infection that what drove me to the gyn who did an ultra sound and discovered i ha severe PCOS .. She did all kind of tests which conformed what she said. Since then i was on metfromin only. i exercise daily and ofcourse went on atkins and BOOM!
I started loosing weight
