female only PCOS and periods

[MrsMandolin 20]

Hi all. First post here. I just had my surgery on Jan 16th. I have PCOS (was diagnosed at 14) and only have had 2 periods over the course of 4 years. One was after losing 25 lbs on a fad diet. I'm only a week out now, but was curious if other women with PCOS saw their periods return and how far out from surgery did they return?

Looking forward to having cycles (sounds weird, I know) and then being able to have babies! :-)

Oh no! How long since your surgery and how long have you been bleeding?

Surgery isn't until mid March :\ I have been like this for about three years. This is week four the last time I bled for eight months and now I'm anemic. I've had DNCs and blood transfusions all thanks to my PCOS!!

That's great ladies! You know, I've come this far, I can make it a few more weeks!

I'm really hopeful that they return. Glad to hear others have seen them come back, even if they are bad or irregular. I'm not having any at all right now so I'll take what I can get
