Hey Girls
I went to FA for my first appointment and was confirmed as having PCOS so have lots of information to read tonight...the specialist gave me three options....
1) Loose 5-10kg and see if I ovulate naturally if not go back and see him after loosing weight and go on the meds
2) go on clomid now
3) go on metformin now....

I have decided (at this stage anyway) to give myself 3 months to loose as much weight as possible then go back and if need be go on the meds then.....but I was wondering what decisions has anyone else made that has been in a similar boat to me and what are the side effects like on the meds etc etc....has anyone lost a small amount of weight and ovulated naturally??? any advice / info would be greatly appreciated

hi kye, i said in the limbo land thread that i'm glad you now have an answer!
and you have made a good decision and good luck with your weight loss!

As you know i have just taken provera and clomid once AF arrived the only side effects i had was being really moody nd with the clomid i haven't been sleeping that well at night and have had night sweats but that was it
I'm not sure with the weight thing and ovulating as i dont ovulate (very often if ever) and my BMI is in the normal range so i dont know about that sorry!

but lots and lots of luck and you can do it vibes coming your way!!!
