What Method Of Birth Control Did You Use?
I would go to ur gyno and talk to them about everything and explain ur worries and concern . I have had pcos since I was 12 and at 26 found out I have endometriosis, and have 1 ovary ... I am blessed to have a noah who will be two friday. However I was 220 at the start of my preg. And although beautiful it was horrible. My legs looked like I had elephantiasis, was gestational diabetes, back hurt just big! I was really trying to lose weight before I got preg. So I was put on metforman ( usually people who are diabetic take this) they have found that it helps women w/pcos lose weight, that being said it apparently helps w/fertility. The cyst like to feed off our hormones and when we r not on bc we r more likely to have them. I always had the hard dermoid kind. I even got one while I was preg. And had to have it removed during my c section. That was it I knew this weight thing really had to happen..at first docs thought it was tyroid after8 months found out iactually don't have atyroid problem. Any way I geuss I just wanted to share with u to let u know ur not alone I am here to to help support u. I was taking yaz before but I am going to go back to the doc after my post appt here have a check up if u find a good one let me know same as I I wish u the blessed ooh I was just sleeved on may 30
