Surprised by PCOS after having children!!

I got sick and tired of being sick and tired so after 5 different doctors could never figure out why I was tired all the time, I made my own appointment to an endocrinologist and was finally diagnosed. I have cut out most of the sugar in my diet and I am not completely well but are much better now that I know what I'm dealing with. BTW, I was on a low carb diet when I got pregnant and never knew that's how I got pregnant until being diagnosed years later.

We are prone to be lacking in iron - I take the floradix iron tablets which helps with the feeling tired massively.

Some pcos ladies have no issues conceive, we are such a variety though so one hat certainly doesn't fit all!

Not what you're looking for?
