i also have PCOS. Im 18 and have had it for about 3-4 yrs. I havent had my period on its own for two years! Ive been through severe depression, ALOT of hair growth, and of course the weight problem. Im so glad im not the only one who suffers through this. It is so hard. My family has no clue what i go through everyday. They think its "normal" In my opinion, the best way to accept PCOS is by having strong supporters.
Im 21 years old and i was just diagnosed with PCOS in August 08. When i went to my doctor for a physical and told her my Symptoms she right away suspected that i had PCOS. i had never even heard of that before in my life. I was very scared & was hoping that the lab tests results would be good but instead my doctor confirmed to me that in fact i do have PCOS. Im now trying to do alot of research and taking Metformin.I find your and everyone's video very helpful. Thank You :) Emma
good video~ I was recently diagnosed w/PCOS, and am having a hard time understanding or accepting that the doctors I had been to in the past haven't diagnosed me, when I've clearly had it for many years. I'm ttc as well, a very painful experience when you've been trying for so long w/no results yet.
I also have PCOS. I also am overweight Ht5-10, wt. 195-209, it vary's a lot. Have hair growth on neck, and stomach. Very irregular periods. About to go on the pill to get my period. But despite all the bad stuff, I have 2 beatiful children!! I saw an infertility Dr. Was taking shots for a month to get pregnant with my daughter, and shots did not work a second time for me, but was on Glucaphage for a year, was about to have my in-vitro consultation,when I found out I was pregnant again. :)
Thanks for the message....you have a great attitude about this which I am happy to hear! I can't wait to hear about more changes that happen as a result of your continued weightloss. I am very excited to have met you. Can't wait to hear more about you!
I'm GLAD you don't have every single symptom, and I hope you never do. Arg! Woman, you're gorgeous and thank you for the vid. I'm glad you've gotten off your ass and decided to change your life. You've changed some major habits home girl. Keep up the good work. I hope to see more from you in the future. :D
P.S. I like "freckers" and I HATE wearing makeup, too! lol
Thanks so much for your video response! We just finished the 4 months of birth control after my surgery and we are going to start trying for a baby. The doctors dont think I need any fertility meds, and that I just need to stay on my Metformin. So hopefully they are right.
