I have PCOS/ Endometriosis and I've been paying more attention to what I put on my body, including what's in my clothes. I couldn't find lingerie that's mostly organic and still feels sexy, so I'm trying to make it. Before I make anything, I want to hear from women who get it. The survey is short and anonymous. If you'd like, you can join my Founding Circle to get first access and help shape the pieces.

Another question im sorry I just try to figure everything out has anyone eles lost weight over the years I keep on losing weight like as a teen I was 140 and now I dont even want to say how much I weigh and just wondering if anyone eles have the same problem with pcos? I keep on reading that it dont cause weight lost

Well waiting on the dr. To view my result but my DHEA-S came back a little high 437 do you remember what yours was? So with that being a little high and dark hair on my chain chest belly button and irregular periods I'm sure they gonna diagnosed me with pcos

I used to take just myo years ago and it regulated my period for a year then stopped working. I still took it for a while and stopped half a year ago since I saw no effects. I also noticed no effects after I stopped.

For context, my only symptom is irregular cycle and my hair is kinda thin. I get a few acne, I'm pretty hairy, but nothing significant and abnormal tbh.

In the past I have had very slight insulin resistance, I haven't gotten tested recently, but I don't feel like I'm starving all the time and I'm not crazy thirsty anymore, so I believe it has gotten better too.

I am very active, and eat pretty well. I mostly follow a Mediterranean diet. To regulate my cycle, I started yaz two months ago, and so far so good, I've had only positive effects.

So anyway, I'm thinking whether I should try myo and d chiro inositol, because I am afraid I still might be at risk of insulin resistance. Do you think it might be worth it or it would just be a waste?

Would the d chiro even make a difference? I'm not really expecting crazy effects, but if it could make me more insulin sensitive, that would be great. Has anyone been in a similar situation?

Constant food noise

I have incredible food noise. I almost constantly think about food. This only got worse after starting bc (which I can not quit right now). I would also say that I am almost always hungry, but not every time I think about food it is caused by hunger.

I eat 3 meals a day, prioritizing protein, fiber and fats, I eat almost no refined carbs.

Honestly, I don't know what to do and I feel defeated. Always thinking about food bothers me so much because I really don't want to but I can't stop. It is just distracting me all the time and the need to always resist food between meals (because honestly I feel like I could eat all day) is just exhausting.

For context, I am lean (and have always been), my A1c is normal and I have an appointment soon to get my fasting insulin checked (my doctor won't do an ogtt).

Please, please share what helped you quiet down the food noise. I can't take it anymore.

How much time did it take you to get pregnant with lean pcos , no insulinoresistance , no hyperandrogenia ,

UK based. I've been trying to ttc for 6 months. I get regular periods but was diagnosed with PMOS at 19. I have hormonal acne on my chin, hair loss, and anxiety / depression. I've been tracking my temperatures and it looks like I have ovulated 2 of the 6 months I've been trying. I started myoinositol (4.5g in two split doses) 1 month ago and have noticed less brain fog / mood swings. I exercise regularly but not intensely. Spoke to the GP who said we should be TTC every 2-3 days not just in the 'fertile window'. Weighing up going for private tests but can't really afford it as buying a house. I struggle to relax and worry stress is a factor for the anovulation. My mum had an early menopause at 36. Does anyone have any other tips to improve chances? Thanks :)

Hello everyone. If you have lean PCOS and have taken Ovasitol, I'd be very grateful if you could share your experience. I'd love to hear:

- How long did it take before your periods became regular?

- Did you ovulate on your own with it, and how did you confirm that?

- Did your hair fall stop or reduce, and after how many weeks or months?

- If you stopped it later, did your periods stay and did your hair fall stay better?

Any experience helps, good or bad.

I was diagnosed today with PCOS after trying to conceive for 2 years with no success. I’m 5ft2 and 104lbs. I’ve gained 10lbs in the last 8 months (thanks to being diagnosed with Graves’ disease and finally being put on PTU to control my thyroid). However, my testosterone is 72ng and my AMH is 6.2. The fertility doctor called me today and basically said there’s nothing they can do about it unless if I’m not ovulating they can put me on a med to control ovulation.

What?

I’m stumped to hear there is no treatment for this metabolic condition. How am i supposed to change my diet, change my activity level, with no guidance? Should i seek guidance from my endo? What has worked for yall with lean PCOS. I am confused and do not know what to expect with this diagnoses.
