Hello fellow PCOS SISTERS...

I am wondering what post op life is like with PCOS? My Surgery is in march, I was dx in 03ish with PCOS and it's a part of life. My husband and I have no kids and we know this is our ticket to children... But as far as periods, hair growth ect... What are the changes your experiencing?

Ok so I want to reinforce my previous post! If you are not ready for more babies, use protection. I have struggled for 20+ years with PCOS and infertility. Lost the weight and now preggo.......with TWINS! Oh yes, that's right, no fertility meds. Very happy about it, just shocked.

Diagnosed with PCOS two years ago, symptoms so bad hysterectomy was done shortly after. I feel much better now, but have gained a lot of weight since causing aggravation to other conditions. Hoping the sleeve will help. I wish insurance understood that PCOS and hysterectomy don't make weight loss any easier as we age. Not that it was easy beforehand. :-)

I am super excited after reading the improvements everyone has had after surgery. I've been diagnosed since 2005,after bleeding for over a year and finally demanding tests. I have been married for 2 years and we really want to start a family. My doctor said that the surgery will help with my severe insulin resistance and get me off all the meds. Right now I have my period about twice a year because I do not want to be on birth control.

Alright ladies. Here is my story.... I'm currently 28 years old, I would say at age 24 I was diagnosed with PCOS, but I knew something was wrong for awhile before that. I have every symptom that PCOS women can get. Especially the dreaded facial hair. It is so defeminizing that I have to shave my face everyday. I want to cry everyday. Why can't I be normal. I recently got my sleeve surgery two weeks ago as of todáy. My PCOS has always made me lose slowly and I've been struggling to get pregnan with my man. This surgery was my lady hope. I am still worried because ts been two weeks and the scale has not moved in six or seven days, an I'm worried this my ave something to do with my PCOS, losing slowly. And yes, I still have to shave. My question, to you post peppers with PCOS, how has yours changed since surgery, is there any light at the end of the tunnel?
