I don't have Pcos but I want to start having kids after my surgery. I'm hoping my weight is the reason I haven't gotten pregnant yet. Been with my husband 8 years and not on birth control for 5 of those years. Not that we were trying but you would think it would happen in that time frame. But there were other factors. Have you met your goal or close to your goal? I would love updates and be able to wish you baby luck. I probably won't be trying til this time next year but I hope it happens for you soon . They say fertility goes crazy high after wls. Good luck!!!!!

My surgery is scheduled for Oct 30th but everything isn't finalized yet but I'm determined to have it then. Are you OK with getting pregnant before you reach your goal. My ultimate goal is 190 (I dont want to be any smaller then that). But I'm going to stop the birth control when I reach 250 and let things happen naturally. I'm really praying our issue is my weight.

It is a requirement from my surgeon that I start birth control 3 months before the RNY through 2 years post op. I have no problem with this and I have PCOS, the pills helps with the symptoms. Anyone else had to do this?

Hi i got diagnoses with pcos about 8 years ago. I wasnt a heavy kid or teen. I never had regular periods. I'm 5'8" I always weight 150 to 165. In less then 2 years I was 262. Once I figured out what I had I hit the gym like crazy. 6 days a week. Strict diet. I hit 180 and got pregnant. It was my merical baby. I was so scared to loose the baby I stopped exercising. I weighed 252 when I delivered. Then I got pregnant again. My boys are 11 months apart . The weight gain was an additional 18 pounds. I started working out again. Then boom car accident. Two pinched nerves two herniated disks. Constant injections in my back. I just want my life back. I want to play with my kids. My mistake was not watching my weight dieting my first pregnancy. With pcos once the weight comes on its a slippery slop. I'm having the surgury to reclaim my life. I just urge everyone with pcos to be careful when you do get pregnant. It's such a blessing as we all know. But pcos makes it so hard before during and unfortunately after pregnancy.

You have to consider that at that weight your a high risk pregnancy. I have pcos and with my second I got up to 250 by month 8. I then had gasdational diabetes and has stress tests almost everyday. I would talk to you gyno or go see an endocronologst.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
