From what i understand, most of us consider it "thin" if weight is not a factor in your PCOS???

Jessie Rae- Hey! I am actually 5"1 and 125#. Now, let me first say that I am not considered overweight by any charts or by anyone that knows me. I am actually pretty athletic and I exercise most days of the week. It took years for me to be diagnosed because I do not fit the "classic" PCOS picture. However, I don't feel like a "thin" cyster either, but I guess I am. :o))

Default What about body fat percentage?

I'm new to this board - a little nervous!
I'm 5'8" 130 lbs, so not crazy skinny, but def. on the thin side.
I just started TTC, but for the past few years I've been working out 6 days a week. I run, do ashtanga yoga, lift weights. I think my body fat is low.
I was diagnosed with PCOS by my RE. I asked him if he thought I was too thin and he said no because my BMI is around 19.5, which is in normal range.

I'm reading Rose Frisch's book right now and I'm trying to eat more full-fat foods (this is hard for me) and not work out as much (even harder).

To add more mystery to the mix, my TSH was high! So I'm hypothyroid and on Synthroid now. I show NO hypo symptoms (other thn having dry skin and being cold a lot) and NO PCOS symptoms.

I was not getting my period at all. Used Provera and got a tiny little bit of flow. Just did a round of Femara. Got a u/s on Thursday - many small follicles but nothing big enough. Get another u/s on Monday.

Anyone who can relate?
