      I struggle a lot with scalp hair loss and losing weight (i have lost 22 lbs in the past 3 months though so that’s getting better). But i do take spironolactone, but i started it years ago for acne before i knew about my pcos. And it works very well with acne and has helped with weight loss, but not so much for me with the scalp hair loss. I see my gyne as often as I can while in college and do let her know about all this too. It is so important to talk about this!

    thank you this was such an informative video!!I’ve had so many struggles with PCOS and I barely got diagnosed yesterday. I would get my period every 3 months, losing weight was extremely difficult, and I had acne and some facial hair. I got laser hair removal, and started Intermittent fasting 3 months ago and my weight loss has been significant after that. I also started getting my period about every month and a half after starting IF (which for me is really good). I truly didn’t think it would have such a positive impact when I started this lifestyle change. Now that I know I have PCOS I plan on adjusting my carb intake and slowly reducing it in hopes to manage my PCOS naturally without the need to take any medication.:)

    I've gone through 6 years of awful physical and mental health symptoms, but the worst has been hypoglycemia due to hyperinsulinemia. It took 3 years to figure out that my insulin problem (and associated weight gain of about 60 lbs) was actually coming from my PCOS. It has been such a difficult 6 year stretch, but now that my doctors have finally figured out the issue, things are finally looking up!

For the past 10 yrs I’ve kept my weight in the 160’s but recently Since 11/2020 My daughter was diagnosed with bone tumor and my life changed drastically I’ve been dealing with stress anxiety and depression so I gained a solid 25lbs. My physician suggested an IUD mirena.. And metformin.

I’ve been on metformin for 5 years. My periods vary between 32-45 days and I have debilitating cramps and back pain. I’ve noticed pain/discomfort in the kidney region during my period recently, and increases thirst, I ensure I’m adequately hydrated regardless of the time of the month; is this a “normal” side effect of mensuration? Thank you!

      Increased thirst is not common, but of course possible. Because PCOS people have increased risk of prediabetes/diabetes, make sure your doctor tests you for that -- as it can cause thirst. Thank you for your kind words and for watching!

    So I have been having stomach pains and weird feeling for weeks. They come and go. They don’t really bother me or hurt like stabbing pain or anything, it just feels like I’m about to be on my cycle. I’ve already had it this month though. I also sometimes get pain on the lower left side of my stomach and sometimes the right side. When it first started, my stomach ran off 3 times, and I felt like I was gonna throw up. I haven’t had diarrhea or my stomach running off since I had a stomach virus, and that was when I was like in the 3rd or 4th grade! Recently, for the past few days I’ve been eating way to much. My book bag was filled with chips From school lunches, now it a few bags in there. I don’t know how many chip bags I’ve gone through, but I know it was a lot of them in there. I also have been eating lots of things with high calories, but low cholesterol and carbs. Stuff like nutrition bars. I am big in on my backside and big on my Tatas, but my thighs surprisingly aren’t that big. I do have a shape, but I’m starting to get hips dips( slightly. you can’t really tell) I also have not been to the doctor in 4 years and never been to an obgyn. Yeah, a lot of insurance problems. Oh!, I’m also 15.

    @alethearia 3 роки тому

    Everything... it's really debilitating. No amount of regular, healthy diet and exercise has helped with the weight loss. I walk go on long walks and hiles 2-3 times a week and eat fairly healthy, even my health-obsessed mom thinks so. Doctors are often baffled at how I'm not diabetic and am in fairly good health outside my weight. But even when I was only 125lbs in my early 20s I still had severe PCOS symptoms. Progestine /mini pills make me bleed so much that I get anemic. The only time I felt normal was when I was on just straight progesterone, but my doctor has become obsessed with getting me on an IUD, which I have had and know that they are awful for me. All I want is to get pregnant, but frequently being told "oh just lose weight" isn't helping anyone but my doctor's state of mind...

      I'm so sorry to hear :( Yes, it can cause gastrointestinal symptoms in some patients. Taking it with meals helps. If that doesn't work, there is an extended release version that may lessen the symptoms a tad. Also, it's typically the worse in the first few weeks and then it dissipates as the body gets used to it typically.
