gah! i was nearly finished my reply but i accidently pressed back on my browser!

basically, i had/have symptoms of PCOS which were: VERY heavy and painful periods, VERY irregular cycles (sometimes i went over 3 months without a period! ), hair loss, i got dark hairs on my neck and chin, etc. and insulin resistance.


i tried different things the doctors suggested, which were metformin (especially because i have insulin resistance) and the pill, and i didnt like the reactions i got from all those, especially having to try so many different types of pill to find the "right" one, i ended up just giving up.

then a friend of ours suggested we try a naturopath, one in particular which he knew to be very good, and he put me on different herbs/tablets (tablets after a few times because i couldnt stomach the solution, ) and i honestly believe that it worked!

being natural it normally takes longer than medicines, but it actually FIXES the problem rather than simply masking it, i was told due to my severity, give it 12-18 months, and i gave it that long (mind you, we werent trying at all during that time so it may not have actually taken that long?) and the month before i fell pregnant, i lost 5.5kg without changing anything! and my cycles were also becoming alot shorter and less painful too.

i completely attribute the changes to the naturopath meds because i wasn't taking or doing anything differently during the time i was taking that stuff.

if you would like any extra info, feel free to ask, im just not sure what else to write!

good job on the weight loss too hun! i know exactly how hard it is!
