    I too have PCOS and insulin resistance from it :/ I've recently started a vegan diet to help.

    I was recently diagnosed with PCOS and am doing a Palo/low carb diet. I have been doing it for about 10 months (with a few months off in between) and have really seen an improvement in symptoms. The weight loss has been slow as expected with a loss of about 30 pounds over the time period but my cycle regulated after 2 months and the cramping/flow has been reduced by about half. Some of the other oh-so-wonderful symptoms are still there but overall I am feeling great about the changes. Good luck on your journey!

    I have Celiac Disease, so my diet is strictly gluten free. I still eat dairy though. Would love to be friends!

    Hey! I don't know if it will interest you but I know LOTS of women have gotten control of their PCOS doing Keto. There's a great community on Reddit ( r/xxketo) for women and a lot of them talk about how it has helped them with pcos..
    Either way, I hope you can achieve whatever it is that you want.
    Good luck!!

    I'm PCOS too. Did keto a while then quit. :( I felt awful so back on the saddle. It really helped.

    No PCOS but hypothyroidism and after completing a Whole30 in June I realized just how negatively so much food effects me so I'm eating a (mostly) Paleo diet. Been "cheating" this week due to my birthday and going out to eat and generally making excuses for myself. But I'm back on the wagon tomorrow :)
