My endocrinologist is talking about putting me on metformin for pcos.with out medication i haven’t had a period in 6 months. if i go on this with out bc will it cause me to ovulate and help to become pregnant?

I’m trying to lose weight so I can conceive. The road has been hard and slow. Anyone have a succes story about what you did and to lose weight with pcos?
Thanks for the info.

I would like to know if I can get pregnant while on BC. With PCOS I have to take it or my period will not end. If I miss a pill my period drops right back down. Would Clomid help me any?

Is it possible over time for the PCOS condition to become worse to the point it becomes impossible to conceive? Is it easier to conceive at first diagnosis with correct medical assistance than later on in the condition?

I have PCOS know little about other than what I have found online. I am obese and are doing these to lose a large amount of weight.My problem is in learning about the PCOS almost all info sees geared towards getting more fertile to have a baby. I’m not looking to have a child now or anytime soon. I would really like some sites or info about good diet for it so I can change my eating habits to get healthier. Thanks!

Just wondered because i’ve just found out that i’ve got PCOS
I haven’t had a period since i came off the pill in January. My testosterone level was 5.6 but for someone without PCOS it should only be around 2. The doctor seemed to think that my level was high even for someone with PCOS

Just wondering if it is possible to to have PCOS if you have a cycle everymonth. My cycle comes every month but usually any where between 1-4 days off (cycle is usually 31-34 days). I do OPKs and i have a surge every month, but don’t really see any changes in my CM.

I started taking royal jelly and now I am considering evening primrose. But if it might be PCOS, my doctor may consider something else.

I have elevated levels of testosterone but my doctor had a lot of tests done and said that I do not have PCOS, (an ultrasound showed that I did not have any cysts) my question is what else could cause this and is it going to make it harder for me to get pregnant in the future?

I have PCOS and have always struggled with water retention, even when I was at a normal weight. I would like to learn more about the hormone Progesterone, how it keeps the body from retaining water. I’ve gone months without cycles, hence: no progesterone was produced because no ovulation took place.

My so called "friend" (not to my face… but still what a bi*ch) called me a fat shit to my friend and said PCOS is a pathetic excuse for being overweight. It really upset me especially as i eat healthier than her and exercise more often… i DO try but its really hard.
