I know MANY women who have WLS suffer from PCOS, I am only 3.5 weeks out so idk if my cycle has/will regulate but did anyone else have excess Hair growth from PCOS and if so, did that stop, & when???

Hi! Well my cycles are definitely more regular now. Not exactly on a definite pattern but I get them consistently. I even became pregnant in September which was wild after 3 years of nothing. Unfortunately I miscarried but since then even I'm getting periods at least monthly. I wish I could say the hair growth had stopped but not totally. It doesn't seem as heavy but I still have it despite being very close to goal. My 1st period or so after surgery were pretty brutal. It's a bit better now. Idk if this is my new normal.

I have pcos too. My surgery was in june 2013 and I am starting to get normal periods for the first time. I am 42 years old so you can imagine it is new for me. My Hair growth is very improved too. I wish I had dine this in my 30s because maybe I would have been able to get pregnant. Not having children is a huge source of pain for me.
