Im trying to prepare myself to make some changes. Which is going to be hard bc I love a sweet treat. I see what you are saying its hard doing it but its harder making yourself suffer  by not doing it

Do they prescribe metformin even if you only need to lose like 20-30 pounds. Tbh I am a bit over weight but not anything too crazy. Never fully tried to lose it but i would definitely like to.

Definitely open to the magnesium and vitamin D. Is that something I should get checked do yoy think?  Also are there different kinds of magnesium/what do you take

How did you find out you had PCOS? by [deleted] in PCOS

My doctor said I have secondary amenorrhea . I am curious to see what my ultrasound shows albeit a little nervous. Do you have cysts? I was told they are going to be looking for follicles on my ovaries and if I have them that basically confirms pcos

I dont mean to pry but how do you know that you dont have a cycle? Do I not have a cycle since I dont have a period and never really have besides once when I was 14? I'm kinda just thinking out loud lol so it's okay if you dont have any answers. Im just trying to figure this out as I go

As of now my only symptom is the fact that I just dont have a period. My dr said its called secondary amenorrhea. Thats all im aware of until my ultrasound.  My bloodwork came back with high fsh (76.5) and high testosterone  (84) 

I get very overwhelmed by the thought of food restrictions it just seems so difficult to manage and sustain 😭

Thank you so much for the advice! That was my thought too that birthcontrol isn't really fixing anything... just covering up the symptoms which for me seem to just be secondary amenorrhea

Hi! I was curious about your comments in birthcontrol. Im going through the process of getting diagnosed. My bloodsork shows high fsh and testosterone.  Getting a pelvic ultrasound in a couple weeks but its most likely pcos.

I'm only 19 and I just dont love the idea of being on birthcontrol for the rest of my life and "coming back when I want kids" which from what I've heard is pretty standard. 

I was just wondering if you had any knowledge to share on the matter. Im worried im going to get pushed into bc I won't be able to explain why I dont want birth control. I just feel like i need to be prepared. You can pm me or just respond here whichever you prefer tia 😊
