PCOS and WLS

Hello Ladies! I am curious if anyone out there has PCOS and a high insulin resistance level. Anyone have any luck with decreasing the free insulin post-surgery?

    I am pre-op but asked my surgeon specific to this question. PCOS for 10+ years, blood SUGAR levels normal, however free blood INSULIN level generally from 55-75 and VERY insulin resistant even with metformin. He told me that most women with PCOS will normalize their insulin levels within a month or two of surgery AND that I can expect normal monthly cycles for the first time in my life..

    Awesome! Hoping it lowers back to normal :) I would be so happy if it went down to around 12-13 so I can be able to have a family in the future
