Hi everyone
I too have PCOS and have been struggling with this for 5 years. I have every symptom and I'm hoping that going on the Atkins will help. I came off the pill in 2001 and never got a period. I was always irregular, started at 13, but only got 1 every few months so the doc suggested putting me on the pill at 15 to regulate my cycle. I have went on and off the pill over the last few years but I still only get a period when I'm on the pill
So I'm now off it and am hoping that The Atkins can straighten out my body (in more ways than one)
I am hoping to have family in the future and would be devastated to find I couldn't due to this condition. I have seen the cysts on the ultrasound and see they are very small, the doc thinks if I lose the weight my symptoms may disappear and my period may return
I was put on Metformin several years ago, but it did nothing for me so was taken off it. They then put me on Orlistat to lose some weight, but I couldn't put up with the stomach cramps so took myself off it.
I'm encouraged by the posts I've read here so I hope I too can shortly post I'm also in the club
.
Thanks
