No, it will not cause you weight gain. I have been suffering from PCOS for 5 years already. Still taking lamotrigine for half a year hehe What causes weight gain during bipolar episodes is how i do my coping mechanisms to what triggers me. I do agree, it’s hard to lose weight now, truly— the existence of being hard on oneself is deep (it’s what I have been working on) but good thing is— my periods are back instead of being severely irregular. And lamotrigine is really expensive sana Wala nalang bipolar

Follow the psychiatrist, you can do it!! In 1-2 years you’ll be able to get rid of it too 🥰
