I've been a member of this support group for over a year because there was a "suspicion" that I might have PCOS. Well, my tests were normal (according to this midwife) and my problems were "I just don't know how to turn off my Mommy button". Not really sure what that meant, but figured that I didn't have PCOS, so I didn't need to keep finding info about it.

So fast forward a year....my dh is at risk of diabeties so we make huge changes fast! I developed a LOVE...

First I want to say hello to everyone and I'm excited for being here. I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2001. Three years ago I was put on Yasmin, Metformin and Aldactone. Within a year I lost 30lbs. YIPPEE!!! I had never felt better....UNTIL...yep here's the downfall...A year ago I started to put weight back on...slowly...and now I'm up almost 15lbs. I do have to say though....I did stop smoking August 13th of '08!! So I do feel I've gained some of it because of that. I started to work out...

I went to my Doctor on the 6/4 because I was having issues with the medication that she had me on (provera). I told her I had horrible mood swings while on the medication and when I went off I was in severe pain. I told her at my yearly check up that I was not interested in going back on birth control because I wanted to have a baby. That is when she put me on provera and said I will have a period and I may ovulate...if I hadn't gotten pregnant in three months we would go to the next step. Anyway...

Hello to you all, I too am new to this site not to PCOS... I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 17 yrs old. I am now 23. I have had a long struggle and somedays I have wanted to give up.. It took me fighting to find out what was wrong with my body, and then to be diagnosed with PCOS. I went through 3 drs before I found out what my problem was. I have no children, although like many of you would kill to have one. My husband and I have been trying for YEARS.... he has gotten to where he just chooses...
