What's PCOS?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Nothing has worked for me yet. Apparently a low carb diet is supposed to help, and cut out all dairy. But there goes my reason for eating! I am trying though.

The best relief I have ever gotten was losing weight. Not low carb or any of that other stuff they suggest. Just plain old losing about 100 lbs. I have put some back on unfortunately through crazy life stuff and just pure laziness. My PCOS has begun to give me issues again as the weight has crept on.

Low carb doesn't have to mean keto or Atkins. I found reducing my carbs to below 150g/day has really helped. Anything over that I start to become irregular.
Regular exercise (at least 3 days a week) and mostly lifting weights has been helpful as well.

Metformin helped me years ago, although the side effects aren't fun. Honestly, though, my symptoms didn't start to fade until I had lost a significant amount of weight. Losing weight with PCOS can be more challenging so it's somewhat cruel, but that's also the best way for symptoms to subside. I still have some symptoms (damn hirsutism), but overall much better!

I'll keep it short & sweet. I have pcos, not on any medication other than BC, diagnosed at 17. Over weight my entire life started mfp august 2016 currently down 98lbs ... i didn't change my diet I just ate a calorie deficit.
