I just came across this site while I was doing some research on PCOS. :::Waving:::
My name is Robyn and I was diagnosed with PCOS in 1999. I had a miscarriage in 1999 and was diagnosed shortly after. I have always had symptoms though. My periods have always been irregular.
In 2001 we were able to get pregnant again with the help of clomid and I had my daughter, Megan. We are getting ready to TTC again in January but I am going to give the herbal route a try first. Medicines make me feel so bad. I have used clomid to ovulate and I am insulin resistant so they put me on Metformin. It made me soooooo sick and it did nothing for my weight loss... I went off of that and switched to Chromium and I lost 20 lbs in two months and I feel great. I just started taking Vitex to get my periods regular. Hopefully that will work for me.
I can't wait to start posting!
You're doing great on the weight loss! I'm working on that myself. Glad to see that the chromium is helping. I'm taking cinnamon now, which according to some will help w/ glucose issues and cholesterol too.
There's an alternative treatments forum here that has info on herbals, plus there are cysters on the TTC forum that are using herbals as well.
It's nice to have you here!
Hugs
Jenny
