Pcos and weight loss

4 Replies

I have been trying for a baby for two years now and I’m not over weight I am a size 10 but I have seen that weight loss can regulate periods?

My cycles are between 35-42 days

Has anyone’s period changed after weight loss?

Hi,

I think weight loss only helps PCOS symptoms if you’re overweight or higher end of normal BMI to begin with.

I was a size 10 also and lost significant weight because I’d read that to lose 10% of body weight would help. It didn’t do anything for me personally x

I had a blood test that confirmed ovulation, did you take any fertility drugs in the beginning of your journey?xx

Yeah my blood test showed I didn’t ovulate so I was put on clomid. I had to stop it as the side effects for me where awful. Then we started ivf - I’m currently 35 weeks after our 3rd round xx
