I know a lot of you are stating that you have to have diabetes or high blood sugar to have pcos, but my endo said there are 3 criteria (symptoms of pcos) you must meet 2 to be diagnosed with pcos. my two were the hair and infertility. most people either meet all 3 or have the blood sugar as one. I was also told that my…

I guess there is some confusion on here as to do I see an endocrinologist and the answer is yes. I had my first appointment at the end of march and have a follow up in 3 months. Because I have excess hair and trouble with fertility he has diagnosed me with pcos after ruling out all other possibilities with blood test. I am…

Thank you all for your comments. My blood sugar was tested as well and it came back in the normal range. So I think I may have to be like jens936 and just eat a diabetics diet. This will be a big adjustment for me because I have always incorporated a lot of fiber to balance any carbs. I have always tried to keep my carbs…

I am confused with the metformin is it for diabetes or just to help lose weight?

He loves that he can take me out and…

I would think maybe you are not getting enough potasium or calcium. When I was pregnant I used to get cramps in my legs and feet something awfull. The Dr. told me to up my calcuim and potasium. If you don't want the calories you can buy supliments. When pregnant a baby takes those vitamins from you, but dieting you need…

I feel the same way. I think it will be a long time to reach our final goal of 100 lbs, but if you set mini goals as I have you can feel great the whole way through. Celebrate each 10 lbs or each pant size along your way. Don't focus on the main goal, but the mini goals.
