Karen2012 got a reaction from Liliana Arleen in Any Women Here Have Pcos ? & Had Weight Loss Surgery So Chances Of Being A Mother Can Increase ?
Hello their everyone, my name is Karen. I have PCOS and Im a 21 yrs old. I've been trying to have a baby with my husband. We've done In vitro and NOTHING so my Dr recommended me to get weight loss surgery so my chances of being a mother can increase. Basically so my PCOS symptoms can decrease. Are their any ladies here that have PCOS and have the surgery and have a baby now? or did your DR recommend this too ? thanks in advance

Hi
I was 262 lbs when I started the options program. By the time I saw the surgeon for the consult. I was down another 12 lbs. When I went for my pre op I was 5 more lbs down. I had to return the day before surgery to meet with the bariactric nurse to watch a video on post op care. It was in the afternnoon, I had just had lunch and when the weighed me, I was 1/2 lbs more. The surgeon canceled my surgery. In the end, i was glad I had the chance to lose some more weight. I really feel that it was instrumental in my recovery. I am a week and have and half post op and I have lost 18 lbs so far.
Kaiser WLA was great, I have no complaints!

sorry i am not in West La Either. but i am going to the Corona Kaiser, so i can tell you my experience at that Kaiser dont know how similar it was to West La- My options class finished the 1st week of January. i met with the surgeon on Wed- and they had availability to schedule my surgery as soon as April 16th. Hope that time line kind of helps you out.
