Hi everyone! I am new to soul cysters and I am glad I found this site!
I have PCOS, IR, and Endometriosis. We have been ttc for almost five years and have 2 failed IUIs. I am currently not on any meds because what works for PCOS actually either aggrivates my endo or causes migraines (a leftover side effect from Lupron shots for endo). I am looking to lose weight on a low carb diet, exercising and I am researching the insulite program. I am 75 lbs overweight and I suffer from mood swings, exhaustion (even though I sleep 8-10 hours per night), zits, male pattern baldness, and a few hairs on the chin. Although I began to have PCOS symptoms at 17, and endo symptoms at 21, I was not diagnosed until July 2006 (I am now 27). We did 11 months of infertility, and I stopped all meds afterwards (since Aug 2007).
I look forward to getting to know you all who understand how I feel everyday!

Wow! Thank you for the warm welcome. It is great to find a place of people who understand how you feel. I mean other than being overweight, childless and bald on top of my head (like a man has), I seem like a normal healthy woman. However, it is so refreshing to see women who feel the same way I do.
