My question was is it possible to get pregnant and get regular monthly periods ? Is it true that because of pcos and having gb you have high chances of multiples?

Having PCOS can increase your risk on having multiples, yes. You don't ovulate regularly and are more likely then someone without PCOS to release multiple eggs when you actually do ovulate....I've had multiple patients over the last 12 years who have lost 50+ pounds and suddenly become pregnant. Some thrilled because they wanted kids, some not so thrilled because they didn't....that said, I do know some people with PCOS that are not obese and are having fertility issues....I wish you the best!!!

I'm in a similar boat. Preop 367. Dos 10/15/12. I have pcos too but birth control regulated my period. Now, my Feb period is late. I'm not pregnant but am confused. Hopefully things get better for u!

The nurse at my surgeon's office got pregnant about 1 month post-op. she had previously been told she could never have children so she wasn't even thinking it was a possibility. She had a fairly rough pregnancy but the baby was very healthy and so is she. She ended up with a nutrition IV because she wasn't getting enough for the baby, but that was months 6-9. Anyway, the point of my post is that both you and baby should be fine. Just make sure that both your OBGYN and surgeon are aware of the situation and follow what they say.

Birth control never worked in the past even with a combination of hormone pills it would only come for a month then it would disappear so I hope this surgery will get rid of pcos , I have had spotting here and there for less then a day about 2 times after surgery 1-21-13 so I hope it works. Wish you the best

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
