The Struggles With Pcos



Recommended Posts

I'm set to have my sleeve next Weds, July 25th. My big push to have the sleeve is not only to become healthy but hope that my PCOS goes away and then finally be able to get pregnant. Are there any sleevers out there who have had the surgery that had pcos and were able to get pregnant after the sleeve?

I have PCOS and was sleeved on 7/17/12 so cannot answer your questions but I will keep an eye on this forum to see if others have advice.

I too was wondering, I have PCOS, will the surgery reverse that or at least lessen the side effects? I have read that some people, after the weight loss, seem to no longer have PCOS, how true is that?

I'm at 20 months out and starting fertility treatments. My Dr said that it won't exactly go away, but it will get better. It did get a lot better, but the last few months I've missed my cycle and he said it's normal and that everything is fine. As far as I know there isn't a cure for PCOS, but the problems can become better. :) I don't know how much that helps.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
