Re: Hello

Welcome to the site. I too have suffered with PCOS for many years. I am 42 years old and have been overweight my whole life. And I am a firm believer that a low carb diet can reallly be beneficial to people with pcos. I have not been on birthcontrol since 1989 and tried for many many years to get pregnant. The infertility road is a rough one. With that said persistance can really pay off..I started trying to concieve in 1991 many treatments and shots and docotors and procedures..etc...I now have a 5 year old and a 2 year old. I really want to have another child even though I am getting much older. I do not want to go through what I went through before so Here I am on atkins trying to get the weight down by low carb. There are so many proven documentations that correlate pcos and insulin resistance and infertiltiy.. Stay motivated with the infertilty and the way of eating. Hope to hear about your success soon...
