Hello..my name is mia, and i've been diagnosed with pcos/IR within the last few months..i'd been realizing that i was gaining weight and getting no AF(thanks icka i had no idea what AF was) and my mood was so disgustingly horrible. But everytime I complained to my Gyno he just gave a prescription for birthcontrol pills..after i realized he was not helping me..i switched Dr.'s and my new gyno said "he only wrote hormonal imbalance?" I was like WTH? My old gyno never even mentioned that to me but it was in my charts! Anyway she took blood, ran some tests and i was officially diagnosed with PCOS/IR. She told me I really needed to lose weight. I'm 5'7 at 206lbs. well i'm down to 190 now..
I was told that once i lost weight, my hormones should be back to normal and AF should be back on course. I'm on metformin 1000mg 2x a day
I have a question though: I would only like to drop another 20-30 lbs. If I don't start to ovulate after that, does that mean my body needs me to drop more weight to return to "normal"?
Welcome to SC!
I do not know about ovulation / weight gain - just wanted to welcome you!
Have you tried any of the TTC forums? They might have something more about ovulation on there...?? Just a thought!
