i'll agree with the low GI food - the changes to my system have been immense!! when i was first diagnosed with PCOS - the insulin resistance side of it was so bad that i was having hypos all the time (during the GTT i'd have normal BSL's before the test, and after 2 hours, my sugars would be at levels that were so severely low i'd be looking at hospital time!) - now, my BSL's, even in pregnancy, are perfectly normal!

accupunctture can help with a lot of the symptoms as well, and if done regularly, can help to get you a cycle where you may have otherwise not had one. i know the "man, it's nice to not have AF" feeling - i love it - but at the same time, i know that it's not great for my body!

metformin can help but it has some nasty side effects until you get used to it - your 4 days of hell on the pill would probably become a few weeks on met - but once you're on it, for a lot of people, it will stop the insulin resistance to the point of allowing your ovaries to function properly

my suggestion - tell the new GP the FS told you that you had PCOS, but you're not sure - from the sounds of it, the FS noted polycystic ovaries on the scan, but didn't do the hormonal screening (i might be wrong) - it might be worth having the BT's for hormone levels tested and even have the GTT with insulin level testing at the same points so that you can work out WHAT parts of the PCOS you have - i have all of them (yay me!) but some people don't, and it's best to base any treatment on YOU, not just an idea based on a diagnosis (hope that makes sense)
