i found out that i have pcos…and i lost 5 pounds and my period is regular now for 4 months…thanks for the help tho.
@syncng Definitely ask for a pelvic ultrasound..not just a regular ultrasound bc they can miss the cysts and tell you that nothing is abnormal
Oh sorry to hear, glad it was helpful tho, at least you know now and you can do things to make it better
I`m17 and I jus found out I have pcos and i wasnt rly sure what it was but this video was rly helpful. btw, i love yer accent.
oh u got cute babies crying for mama in the background….. how sweet
im overweight. irregular period and i dont know when i ovulate.
You should ask her next time you see her if she thinks you have it, it may not mean that you do have pcos, do you have any other symptoms of it? acne, facial hair, low energy, hair loss from scalp, overweight? and are your periods regular and do you know if you ovulate?
i had ultrasound and my doctor told me that i have few cysts on my ovaries but she didn’t tell me about pcos. Hmm..
I found out by ultrasound, and the fact that i didnt ovulate and had irregular periods. There are also blood tests you can get done to check insulin resistance, and hormone levels, but blood tests alone arent always conclusive. So Id suggest doing everything, I am actually seeing a dr today to get tests done. The more you know the more you can do to manage your symptoms!
how do they check for pcos? blood test? ultrasound?
thank you
Glad you are keeping fit and healthy now! That is true that alot of people assume you have to be overweight to have PCOS. But cutting out sugar does help things alot. Personally I dont think birth control pills help in any way apart from masking the symptoms, but i think they are what made my PCOS worse since i stopped taking them its messed up my cycle when it was totally regular before i took them. So i wont ever be taking them again lol!
I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 23; 25 now. I begged doctors to test me, but they assumed I never had it because I was thin. But I always suspected I had a hormone-related problem from a young age. PCOS makes my hormones crazy and it doesn’t help that I take anti-depressants
Many don’t know thin girls have it. I’m cautious of sugar intake even though I don’t have diabetes. But few years ago I was borderline diabetic, so I cut sugar intake then. I keep fit, eat healthy, & take b/c pills
Thankyou so much:) Im glad you dont have PCOS too, its not a nice thing to have. But at least there are ways to deal with it.
Yeah, I should have mentioned in the vid that it is VERY common for thin women to have PCOS aswell. I hope its good news for you hun… Im finding out now how hard and confusing and frustrating it actually is to deal with having PCOS, i guess its something ill have to get use to. Good luck at ur drs appointment
well done. Another great bunch of videoes from you. I can tell you care about others so much and want to help them a lot. You are a great person with hudge heart. Although I haven’t got PCOS I found all info very useful. Also, it made me feel so lucky that I haven’t got it. Good luck with treatment. xxx Marianna
WOW, great topic and your SO wonderful to do these videos and give this info. I agree with the whole diet/supplement thing. Thats what Im starting to do recently to balance out my hormones. My doc, this past time I visited her she it might be pcos as well for me…she will let me know my next appt. this coming tuesday…
I have ALL those symptoms-except for being overweight and oily skin/acne(never had those)..I lose weight easily. However I have a lot of body hair..ugh.
