Obesity and pcos

cher3150 · February 16, 2006

Hello all,

does anyone have pcos and if so when do you start to feel the side effects of pcos going away or taking a back seat, I was told when I was 19 I had pcos and I was about 12st over the years I went up to 21st,<?xml:namespace prefix = v ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" /><v:shape id=_x0000_i1025 style="WIDTH: 11.25pt; HEIGHT: 11.25pt" alt="0" type="#_x0000_t75"><v:imagedata o:href="http://www.lapbandtalk.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif" src="file:///C:/DOCUME~1/AMD/LOCALS~1/Temp/msoclip1/01/clip_image001.gif"></v:imagedata></v:shape>

I’m back at 16st 8lb now and have been banded for 3 months, I have a little girl that I fell for when I lost 4st before, she is now 6, but I put it all back again (not banded then), I don't want more kids I just don't want all the other bits that go with pcos, any help would be great<O:p</O:p

Many thanks <O:p</O:p

Hello!

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 18 and I've tried to get pregnant with no luck. That's part of the reason why I got the band not the only reason but one. I believe that part of PCOS is weight related. I got the lap band on 2/6/06 and I already got a period. Now I don't know if my body is going through changes or it has something to do with the fact that I lost 28 lbs. I never got a period on my own I always had to take medication, so it's too early to tell. I will definitely keep you posted. Good luck to you and I hope the information was helpful.
