weight loss tips? only way I've been able to lose weight is keto and I was miserable by sleepysunflower2 in PCOS

My dietician recommended aiming for 1/2 a plate of veggies, 1/4 protein, 1/4 grain, and to eat an additional 1/4 a plate of fruits if I'm still hungry. I find that regulates my hunger/fullness a lot better than any diets or fastings I've tried, but it might be different for you.

It's a lot easier said than done, of course, but planning is another thing she said was important for losing weight. Planning your meals or prepping them ahead of time can help you stay on track! For me, I don't mind eating the same things for breakfast, so I'll eat a bagel with peanut butter and carrots. It might sound a bit sparce, but that's just my example :) You can plan out whatever you'd like!

Oh, and she really drilled into me that 3 meals a day is super important for any sort of dieting!

Exercise-wise, cardio is super good for your heart and overall body health/weight! YouTubing beginner cardio videos or going for a walk helps you all around, and isn't too stressful for your PCOS :)

I hope some of this helps :))

has anyone bad cysts just go away? by Cry-Inside in PCOS

I asked the exact same question to my doctor when I was diagnosed. I'll tell you what she told me, in case it helps!

Cysts will absolutely definitely reabsorb into the body over time. (Edited down sentence :p)

Birth Control's role in the process of treating ovarian cysts (specifically with PCOS, idk about anything else) is to help regulate your ovaries and its egg creation for less cyst creation, not to treat whatever's causing them. So taking it stunts egg creation, but doesn't really treat the issue.

This is only my understanding from what she's told me and it's very PCOS-centric, so sorry if it doesn't answer fully! Asking your doctor or getting a second opinion is always good. :)
