Hey Jacinta,

I'm another with PCOS. I was not diagnosed til i was 29yo. I always had irregular periods ranging from 45-50 days. I fell pregnant to DS within 6 months of TTC, i was about 65kgs. We had a hard time falling pregnant with DD, when i had all sorts of tests done, which showed a 6cm cyst on my ovary and a few smaller ones on the other. I was 80kgs. I went and saw an endocrinologist (hormone specialist), who told me that my current weight of 80kgs may be too much for my body to handle and that i had to lose some weight. I lost 10kgs before i saw him next and had to cancel my appt because i had fallen pregnant.
I now maintain my body to below 70kgs as i know that my body can't handle it.

I find weightloss hard and my weight sticks IYKWIM. I have a hairy upper lip, slightly hairy belly etc.. which i need to pluck (only my upper lip) regularly. I had severe acne as a teenager and used Roaccutane to cease it. Add i crave sugar all the time. And i have thrush all the time. My hormones are just out of whack.

So, just to give you some hope... I fell pregnant naturally twice. Give weightloss a try. It worked for me and it may work for you.
