Hi, everyone!

This is my first post. I haven't made arrangements (yet) to have the surgery.

Anyway, I have PCOS, and have insulin resistance (not diabetes), and no co-morbid conditions.

Do you lose less with VSG with PCOS than you do if you don't have PCOS?

Hi all! I was diagnosed many a moon ago and spent a ridiculous amount of time ignoring what was essentially a menopausal state. I was sleeved 8.29.13 and within 20 pounds I started menstruating. Still a hairy beast but otherwise my biological symptoms are all but gone.

diagnosed with PCOS about 12 yrs ago and metformin since then. one IVF baby and one adopted.

I have talked with my surgeon extensively- in fact just yesterday was my final apt- and he told me that although my PCOS should be fairly resolved from surgery, it may not disappear completely. he also stated, as somebody else here said, that the PCOS shouldn't be a HUGE barrier to my losing with surgery, and that in the long term I need to focus on becoming VERY dedicated to a regular exercise regimen to ensure that my PCOS stay controlled...

I DO have multiple comorbids, and i'm just looking SO forward to being off all my meds...

I was considered menopausal too. Then along came Aunt Flow. We'll see how this works.

It is very strange to live on a loop. Good luck. May you have more grace than I.
