I'm still preop but yes - pcos for years and got pregnant without trying after a big weight loss - what Q's do you have?

My question was is it possible to get pregnant and get regular monthly periods ? Is it true that because of pcos and having gb you have high chances of multiples?

Having PCOS can increase your risk on having multiples, yes. You don't ovulate regularly and are more likely then someone without PCOS to release multiple eggs when you actually do ovulate....I've had multiple patients over the last 12 years who have lost 50+ pounds and suddenly become pregnant. Some thrilled because they wanted kids, some not so thrilled because they didn't....that said, I do know some people with PCOS that are not obese and are having fertility issues....I wish you the best!!!

I'm in a similar boat. Preop 367. Dos 10/15/12. I have pcos too but birth control regulated my period. Now, my Feb period is late. I'm not pregnant but am confused. Hopefully things get better for u!

The nurse at my surgeon's office got pregnant about 1 month post-op. she had previously been told she could never have children so she wasn't even thinking it was a possibility. She had a fairly rough pregnancy but the baby was very healthy and so is she. She ended up with a nutrition IV because she wasn't getting enough for the baby, but that was months 6-9. Anyway, the point of my post is that both you and baby should be fine. Just make sure that both your OBGYN and surgeon are aware of the situation and follow what they say.

Birth control never worked in the past even with a combination of hormone pills it would only come for a month then it would disappear so I hope this surgery will get rid of pcos , I have had spotting here and there for less then a day about 2 times after surgery 1-21-13 so I hope it works. Wish you the best

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
