    Congrats!!! That is really good news. There's this show called The Food Hospital, where they "cure" different conditions by changing diet, and PCOS was one of them that benefitted from a lower starch diet. Keep up the good work.

    It is very true that being at a healthy weigh helps period issues. I have been having peri-menopausal issues, but since cleaning up my eating, cutting out the sugars and junk, the hot flashes have stopped and I have been regular as clockwork for two months. Plus, my "hormonal" migraines have quit.

    I didn't know how much weight affected how you work as a female until I tried to get pregnant. My husband and I tried 4.5 years to get pregnant. In the last 6-7 months I lost 32lbs, then I got pregnant. I lost the weight through a healthy diet and lots and lots of excersise. I definitely think that losing the weight was a major factor in getting pregnant.
