Hi all!! A lil about me:

I am a SAHM to 3 boys, see siggy for ages, married to high school sweetheart for 11 years. Stationed in England, only been here since the end of January.

Got the diagnosis from my doc last month. I have suffered with severe symptoms for 2 years now, since getting my tubal after the birth of my last child. Everything from crazy heavy periods to super light spotting, hair loss, hair gain on my stomach and fine hairs everywhere else, skin tags, headaches, weight gain ( I gained 20 lbs while Breast feeding my youngest in the first 6 months, so had to quit to try and lose weight), inability to lose no matter how hard I worked out, just in the past 6 months severe pain in the pelvic region, and the list goes on. So I assumed it was a hormonal imbalance due to the tubal. Doc believes otherwise, so I had the bloodwork done and awaiting results for a progesterone test, so my follow up appt is set for the 24th of this month and I am nervous.

Will he prescribe a bunch of drugs, I dont want back on the pill, that was the whole reason I got the tubal, not to mention all the weight I gained while on them. I prefer a natural approach if possible.

He also has me on a insulin ressitant diet. I am doing ok with it, but its hard to find things that arent all bread and sugar, and in our house potatoes are a staple!!

Soooo any info you ladies can give would be much appreciated!!!

Nicole
