Hello! I just recently found this forum. I was diagnosed with PCOS 2 days ago on April 13. The same day my doc prescribed me Provera, which I started yesterday. My first day on Provera I had a massive headache pretty much all day, but today was a lot better. I haven't had AF since August 2007, so I'm pretty excited...I never thought I'd miss it!

I had a glucose test done (just the fasting glucose, not the 2 hr one with the sugar drink), and the doc says I don't have diabetes. I haven't been tested for IR, but I want to start the IR diet just to help me lose weight. Also, my DH and I want to start TTC in about a year.

My only question for now is about soy. I've heard soy can affect hormones, so I'm wondering if its okay for me to have soy milk/protein while I'm on the IR diet and/or on Provera.

Glad I found this place!

Hi,

I was diagnosed about the same time as you by blood tests and my cycle- iregular, last one 3 months ago. My doctor has not given my any info yet but i have an internal scan booked for about 2weeks time- scarey.

I'm sorry i cant be any help for your questions above but hope we can share info as and when we receive it

Hope you are well
Take care

Emma
