Hi ladies.

I'm another with PCOS. I was diagnosed last June and was told that concieving a child would more than likely not happen naturally but i did

I also have an insulin resistance (not sure how its going since being pregnant though) and i also had weight issues. I was put on Diabex XR and i lost 10kgs in 3 months, i didn't change a thing i ate what i normally ate and i didnt increase my exercise.

I am hoping that my pcos settles down after having bub as i remember i was miserable i was constantly in pain my mood swings were awful and i just felt awful.

For those having trouble with weight loss have your insulin levels been checked? i wondered why no matter how much i exercised i didnt lose very much if anything at all and it was because of my insulin.
Wow 10kgs? - im i lose some kind of weight, as im also excercising, but so far i haven't noticed anything (ive only been on it for 1 month) and i refuse to get on scales - last time i did i was 92kg which was just horrific for me - Interesting you mention about pcos settling down after bubs, as mine was fine until about 5 months ago when all the symptoms just started flaring up again - i had my insulin levels checked, which came back slightly elevated but nothing to worry about. my gp decided to put me back on the diabex (i was on them before i fell pg with DD) in order to intercept any further rise in the levels. - i go back to have another lot of bloods done in 2 months as he wants the diabex to take effect before checking again..
