having a scan tomorrow to see if I have an ovarian cyst, from my symptoms my gp seems to thinki have large on that may need surgery
suddenly dawned on me this may be the reason my weight loss has been so pitiful despite sticking to healthy eaten plan (slimming world) and upping my daily exercise
I understand pcos can affect weight loss so wondering if the cyst (if that's what it is) is causing same probs, and if so will my hormone levels / metabolism return to normal once its been removed ? x

It's very possible. I'd suggest talking to your doctor about it.0
