PCOS (Thread 6)

[ieiky]

I don't think PCOS has anything to do with your difficulty on losing weight. It only alters glucose uptake by the body and not the metabolism. We should really have discipline and perseverance in losing weight. I was 75kgs before and now I'm at 55. I really changed my lifestyle starting exercising daily and eating correctly. Consistency is key 

nkakainspire ka naman sis. anong diet and exercise ginawa mo? Sabi ng OB baka daw dahil overweight ako kaya nagka PCOS ako. Pero need ko pa magpalab test sa sunday. OGTT and HBAC1  yata [textspeak!] test na gagawin. I'll try to have a healthy living na. Kaya lang hirap talaga mag start. Daming temptations.

hindi naman impossible maglose weight pag may PCOS, pero MAS mahirap maglose kapag may PCOS compare sa mga walang PCOS. hindi ko na inask ang reason pero yung ang sabi ng OB and GP ko

I started going to the gym and changed my eating habits talaga. OGTT and HBAC1 is a test done to know if you have diabetes

[khrysiesomuch]

PCOS din ako. Aside from metformin, I enrolled din sa gym. at first ang hirap at nakakafrustrate kasi pag nagtitimbang ako parang hindi nababawasan ang weight ko. Pero after 3 mos from 63kgs naging 55kgs ako, nagbawas din ako ng sugar intake at nag no rice diet ako kasi related daw yung PCOS sa DIABETES ayun. TTC kasi kami ni hubby ko kaya ginawa ko at naghirap ako. Sabi ko kasi ang goal is to have a child and i made it mga sis. I'm preggy right now. Sis nakaya, kaya niyo din yan mga sis GIRLPOWER

I was diagnosed with PCOS last year yata yun, and metformin saka pills prescribed ni Doc, together with exercise. Super tagal ko hindi nagmemens sometimes abot ng 1 year, So during meds and exercise days nagnormalize ang menstruation ko, tapos eh hindi na accredited ng company namin ang doctor ko, so I had to find another doctor, eh medyo tinamad na ako, nag stop ako ng meds, eh ngayon gusto na namin magka baby ni boyfriend...pacheck up na ulit ako...hindi naman ako obese, normal lang na petite kung titignan, pero overweight daw ako for my age and height.....nakakakaba ang PCOS lalo na if you're trying to concieve...

[khrysiesomuch]

sis Jelliebean28 kaya yan sis. Kami ng kapatid ko parehong PCOS, akala ko din hindi na ako magkakababy, TTC kami for 2 years, nawalan na ako ng pag-asa nun sis pero sa dami ng kakilala ko na PCOS na nagkababy kayang kaya talaga Ang hirap lang kasi minsan sanay na hindi dinadatnan akala mo normal lang na ganun kasi PCOS ayun pala preggy ka na.

[jelliebean28]

Wow galing naman sis khrysiesomuch...
Anong mga pinrescribe ng doctor mo sayo sis? And anong mga steps tinake mo, tumigil ka ba sa trabaho, like other sisses here para bawas stress, at kung ano ano pa ginawa para maging successful...share mo naman sis... Sana nga maging okay....... =)

[kwang sun]

hi mga sis.. it's my first time posting on this thread.. I really think I have PCOS based on what I've search sa internet =/ ... I have sleep apnea , irregular mens  like a month a part sometimes , and I have acne localized on the chin only despite meron akong magandang skin care regimen =/ ..do you guys think may pcos ako? .. ayoko sana mag BCP kasi hindi naman ako sexually active , any other meds would do sana.. how much din kaya ang usual charge ng ob?  is there any other alternative for treating PCOS? like drinking tea perhaps?

Nawala yung PCOS ko noong nag buntis ako sa 2nd child ko ewan ko lang kung babalik. Sabi nga ng OB ko buti na lang hindi ako nahirapan ma buntis.

[Razchelle]

Hi mga sisses, I want to share my experiences about PCOS. My case started when I was 17 yo, for 21 years I'm taking pills. Pag naka-pills me regla ako pero pag wala, wala. Until I used Althea, my OB told me to stop taking it after 6 mos para makahinga yung ovary ko so I stopped June 2013 then nagkaroon ako nagulat na lang ako September 2013 nagkaroon ulit ako,natuwa ako kasi on my own na, nasundan pa ng December 2013 so akala ko naman quarterly ang dating ng mens ko then yesterday nagkaroon na naman ulit ako. I just hope regular na talaga. Ngayon ko lang ako nagdadalaga.

[alice_alice]

nako galing naman sis Razchelle sana ako rin ganyan. I have PCOS nung 2010 pa pero di ako nagpatuloy sa meds so last year lang ako nagpatingin uli ayun after ko maD&C kasi sobrang nangapal yung lining ng uterus ko tapos may polyp ako sa cervix eh eto nagtetake na ako ng Althea sana naman mahiyang ako dito at umayos na ang hormones ko. mag27 na ko this year and though wala pang plans to have a baby sana when the time comes na I want to na hinde ako mahirapan.

Finally makakapag post na ko dito. I have been following this thread for almost a month now.

I was also diagnosed to have PCOS, when I first saw the result iyak ako ng iyak, akala ko kasi cyst Nalaman kong something is wrong kasi normal ang period ko, na delay ako ng july, naka ilang pt ako lahat negative kaya kusa na ko nagpa ultrasound.

Nag consult ako sa ob, reseta niya: myra e, metformin, folic acid and diane pills. Obese ako girls, kaya nag kusa na din ako mag enroll sa gym.

Nag pa hilot din ako kasi sabi ng friend ko baka mababa daw matres ko, yun nga daw mababa. After itass ng hilot bnigyan ako ng herbal na ugat ng makahiya.

Right now I am still hoping na after ng diane ko (12 days from today) sana magka period na ko.. haist,

Please give your opinion kung tama pa ba ginagawa ko, sa mga nabutis even may PCOS please tell me what to do. Gusto ko na din kasi mag baby

I posted this AUgust 18, 2013, ngayon May 2014 na..

Here's an update on my case. Nagkaron ako September 30-October 3, 2013. After that wala na! 7 months na kong walang monthly period. How despressing it could be! I used to have a regular menstrual cycle.

Hindi na ko nag take ng metformin, myra e, follic acid at pills, dumating lang sa point na nanawa na ko Pero just last night nag usap kami ng partner ko, mag try daw ako ulit kasi gusto na talaga namin magka baby really SOON. Ngayon I am taking up althea pills, papa check up by Monday, sana maging ok na ko at he rest of us here. God Bless everyone!

Hi girls! I have been suffering from severe acne since October last year and nakailang set na ako nang antibiotic prescribed by my dermatologist. Aside from that I also have topical creams from her. More than six months na since I started my medication but parang walang improvement. In addition to acne I also have dandruff and hair loss. Irregular din ang menstruation ko eversince.

I learned about PCOS through internet. I am going to my ob tomorrow because I want to have checked for PCOS. *nervous* *scared*

[uglygirl]

Im not overweight but I used to be. Pero i was diagnosed lang siguro several years after i lost weight. Nung una di ko makapaniwala kasi di naman ako mataba na. But then after ultrasound, yun na nadiagnose na ko. Actually 2 years ago lang yun. And di pa ko nakakabalik sa ob kasi takot ako sa doctors. Literal. Tas never pa naman ako nagka ob. Pumunta lang ako 2 years ago to ask bat more than 1 year na ko lang period tas yun nga. Ngayon im planning na magpaconsult ulit. Pwede niyo ba ko recommendan ng mabait at di masungit na ob?

this is my 2nd time around to post here in femalenetwork. this time about PCOS.. last July 7, 2014 nalaman ko thru lab test na pcos ako both ovaries. pero very inspiring ang mga post na may condition ng kagaya sakin pero nabigyan naman sila ng gift from heaven. sa sat july 12 pa kami babalik ng h2b ko sa ob ko para kung ano ang tamang meds na dapat itake. i know naman deep in our hearts na bibigyan din kami ng aming gift from heaven syempre ang mga katulad ko din na nag wiwish na mabigyan na. just keep on praying mga sis.. in gods time a miracle happen!

btw, we've been together and ttc for 2 years (maybe 1 year is the serious one for ttc). we're not yet married pero h2b willing to marry me kahit ano man mangyari. hehe.. he loves me so much e..and i love him more than he'll ever know..
