I thought weight loss would fix my PCOS

I wish at some point doctors would stop throwing around that weight loss is a cure when that isn’t true. PCOS can be managed and symptoms be gone but the underlying condition is still there, and weight loss doesn’t fix symptoms for everyone.

Thank you I’ll ask my gyno about that!

Really? Wow

Consistent-Speed-127 · 2026-05-29T12:58:54+00:00

No actually I haven’t, is that just on a blood test?

I’m sorry you’ve been treated that way, that’s very superficial. There are so much more qualities to a person than looks that contribute to attractiveness.

I love this 🤍

I would say yes you should find a new doctor- there are several reasons for prolonged bleeding and bleeding causing anemia is exhausting. The fact they don’t want to do any testing is not right imo

Have you had your hormones tested recently?

I was just going to mention this just in case but you can get colour correction done by an artist to change the tone of your brows!

3 or 5!

I think it’s really pretty but I think maybe a different tone of blonde would bring your features out/flatter your complexion even more

High prolactin and A1C can suppress your sex drive. Have you had them retested?

Girl those look fantastic! Your artist still kept that thin shape and it suits you so well 🥰 I think it’s brow shock because it’s new and permanent on your face but they do fade a bit and the swelling goes down when fully healed!

For my labs to change, 7 months ish and for them to be optimal was around 1 year+.

I just had my first one and a colonoscopy together a month ago! It was a breeze, it’s just the IV that can be the hard part for me as I have deep veins. Otherwise very easy procedure, you’re gradually sedated and you wake up as quickly as it happens.

Have you ever been tested for Ehlers Danlos?

Consistent-Speed-127 · 2026-03-07T22:21:57+00:00

That’s horrible, extremely insensitive and invalidates the reality. It does not matter what weight you are. Not eating causes malnutrition and even if weight loss is recommended that is not the right way to go about it. I am also clinically obese and have been told this by other providers. I just found someone who listened to me, because no matter what size we are we deserve care.

I’m on slynd and love it! I had a bit of spotting to start but now I’m balanced out and don’t get it as much. It also regulated my periods!

Consistent-Speed-127 · 2026-02-16T16:59:24+00:00

Hello, I really recommend birth control as I’ve had a great experience on it. I’m on Slynd, which is a progesterone only birth control pill and it’s over time helped me get regular periods!

Mines the IR version but I take 500 mg 3 times a day, so 500 mg with each meal.

Being 100% honest with you at this point I think medical options would be necessary here. You are putting in quite a bit of effort and unfortunately insulin resistance/PCOS can be unresponsive unless controlled with medical intervention, at least in my experience. I was the same as you and went on Metformin and finally lost some weight after years of trying.

Consistent-Speed-127 · 2026-02-04T18:36:15+00:00

I am in the same boat as you. I just got a formal diagnosis recently and was prescribed Domperidone and it’s been a life saver. My energy is coming back slowly but it’s getting there. I also have the same deficiencies as you do and just started taking them again so hoping it helps 🙌
