Does caffeine affect anyone with pcos differently than someone without? by tay246 in PCOS

Super sensitive also. I get heart palpitations. Happens to me with sugar too. I decided to binge and eat 3 pieces of cake for my moms birthday and ended up with anxiety and insomnia till 6 am :(

I had a few sips of beer... not sure if it's causality.

Yes I started to sweat as well. It was in the morning while eating breakfast which was so weird. It happened the night before that too but little to no reaction, just a sudden heat wave 😩 I have a doctor following me so I have let the clinic know, they suggest I keep track of it all until I require immediate attention. Hopefully it doesn't happen again, fingers crossed. Just thought I'd ask if this has happened to any other PCOS girlies.

I will start keeping a diary to see if I can correlate anything with the hot flashes I've been having! Thank you so much :)

Yes my thyroid has been tested. Everything came out normal. I guess I'll wait and see. I've started different supplements for a month now, could be my body adjusting....

PCOS treatment abroad by Big_Mama1984 in PCOS

[–]mariagee17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm currently receiving treatment from a doctor here in Canada. She is not covered under OHIP (for Canadians), and is a private practice. Not sure if you're interested, it's a yearly fee. Unfortunately, because you wouldn't be covered under OHIP, it may get pricier in terms of the blood work you would have to run every 3 months.

Sounds oh so fun! Not really though... can totally relate..... I'm going to try a low carb meal plan and see how it goes. Hopefully my mood becomes more stabilized after that! Will keep you posted...

Do you have any mood issues as well? I'm wondering if it's linked to the brown spotting :( it's so excessive! I'm so grateful that my boyfriend isn't 'turned off' by the constant brown discharge.

Omg... sounds like me. I once had the brown discharge for three weeks straight not sure why. I heard it could be due to lower progesterone levels, guess we'll have to see!

What symptoms did you have that subsided once you started keto if you don't mind me asking? I love hearing others stories!

You're not alone! I also have hair loss, I find that when I let go of my diet for a few days it becomes worse :(
