    I was diagnosed with PCOS in my 20s. Had symptoms of severe periods, excess facial hair, acne, dark skin and was unable to lose weight. My skin doctor put me on spironolactone for acne, and not too long after I dropped 30.pounds in a month. I don't recommend it.
    I've had a hysterectomy and also have endometriosis. My weight was stable for 15 years, but recently I gained 25 pounds in two months, so here I am starting MFP, and seeing a second opinion about my health because my first doctor told me I needed to "drink less soda." Which is a neat trick since I don't drink soda...but I digress. I'm hoping to get to healthier because right now I'm not.
