PCOS (Thread 6)

[EF_84]

I also have PCOS. And i never take the birth control route or any medications. It will only hurt your health even more. What i did was i took cinnamon and chromium piccolinate para maregulate blood sugar then changed my diet to less carbs, sugar and processed food. Meaning you have to eat home cooked meal walang mga junk foods or fast foods! Then carbs mo from fruits not from rice or breads, no dairy as much as possible. Once your pcos symptoms got better you can somehow incorporate some of the foods back pero syempre dapat controlled pa din. Alao dont forget to do at least 3x a week exercises. Yun lang at naging maayos naman symptoms ko. Pero if you are planning to have a baby soon a little help from your OB will be okay. But in most cases pcos is really from being insulin resistant kahit di ka mataba, like me im payat pero im pcos and may insulin resistant. So take care of your intake of sugars and carbs.

^sis i had pcos too both ovaries tas naging right na lang. I took pills lang for hormone regulation, tapos vitamins. I got pregnant a few months after i stopped my pills and clear na ovaries ko.

hi sis anong pills tinake mo? birth control pills ba? plano ko nga itry yung althea para ma lessen din pimples ko. is it safe ba mga sis?

[grace.kelly]

Can anyone recommend na magaling na obgyn or doctor for pcos? I'm still looking for obgyn/doctor na magaling at makikinig sa akin, ultrasound lang kasi ginagawa nila then bigay bcp na e ayaw ko na nga ng pills, I tried that before already. I want to have my hormones, thyroid and insulin/blood sugar tested pero okay na daw yung ultrasound and bcp. Sa tingin ko lang naman masmagagamot ako if all those will be tested din, baka maseffective sa kain if yung thyroid ang gamutin (whici is connected din naman sa pcos).

Right now I'm just controlling my sugar intake.

I used to take cinnamon. Is it more effective ba if I also take chromium piccolinate? I take zinc picolinate din for my blood sugar at nakakatulong din naman.

[bettebette]

Yup. Nagpositive diba. Visible lines. So preggy ka nga. Congrats!

I have pcos but now i have gall stones too. Help , i dont know what to do anymore :/

hugs sis.. im in the same situation sis. last week, nadiscover namin may gallstones ako. today pcos naman.. im trying to stay positive.. 

[barbillie]

^Ask ko lang if may effect ba ang gallstones sa fertility? And anong impact kapag hindi pinaremove?
Yung dati ko kasing boss 4 years na yung gallstones nya, di naman sya nagpapasurgery.

[lordknight_aiz.18]

^im not sure sis about the effect of gallstones sa fertility. but if you do get pregnant and you have gallstones, mahirap kapag umatake yung pain and worse kapag kailangan operahan na tapos may baby ka inside the womb.

some people have gallstones and they dont even know it kasi walang symptoms. kung di naman sumasakit, okay lang na wag magpasurgery. but kapag may symptoms like backpain, stomach pain, vomiting, mas maganda daw iparemove na. possible din kasi na mag-rupture or bumara sa bile duct.. kapag umabot sa point na yun, mas delikado na.


*pansin ko lang, parang medyo magkalaban yung diet for pcos and for those with gallstones.. ang hirap ibalance..

another thing, while backreading, i noticed parang iba ang polycystic ovary sa PCOS.. tama ba? o same lang yun?

[kwang sun]

^ hi mga sis thanks sa mga nag reply , mahirap nga mag diet kulang na lang wala na akong kakainin, although yung diet ko sa pcos at gallstones same same lang kaso yun nga kulang na lang wala na akong kakainin simula nung nagka gall stone ako , I losta looooot of weight which is bad , ibang iba talaga nung the last two months anlaki ng pinayat ko, so heto ako ngayon humihingi ng advice to those na may pcos na may gallstone pa?.. nga pala single pa ako not planning to have a baby anytime soon

sis pag polycystic ovaries you have cysts on your ovaries without the symptoms, most probably irregular period/ovulation lang. pag syndrome kasama na yung ibang symptoms -- weight gain, hormonal imbalances, glucose problems, etc

[lordknight_aiz.18]

^ahh now i understand. thank you sis.. i will see my ob on october 18.. by then, mas alam ko na kung ano ba talaga ang condition ko.

[OfficeGirl]

Sisses, after ilang days ako magkakamens after last dose ng duphaston? Last day ko na kasi today, 2 tablets a day. Waiting na lang ako magkamens to start on Diane 35.

[lordknight_aiz.18]

My ob is asking me to take provera for 5 days para daw magka mens na ko.. Last mens ko kasi was September 9.. tapos on day 17-26, provera again. I refused to take it because I don't want to take pills. Tapos she gave me another option nalang which is the vaginal utrogestan. I think that's better because it will pass through my stomach. Parang suppository nalang..

[simang]

^^sis ako dati more than 2 weeks after ng duphaston saka lang nagkaperiod

[abuelita]

Question. Does work schedule affects PCOS? kasi i had always been regular even if im working at night. then after 3 years saka siya nag manifest.

[IamCessy]

Hi! Sorry hindi ako nagbackread to check if may natanong nang ganito. Anyway, possible ba na from polycystic ovaries - bilateral, maging normal ovaries? May mga nababasa kasi akong hindi nacucure to, pero based on my latest TVS, normal na both ovaries ko.

[blackgreen]

Nagpa ultrasound ako kahapon. Both ovaries ko pa rin pcos. Dati isa lang. Huhuhu..

Pero good news na din kasi yun nakitang polyps last year nawala na.

[dpmallo19]

hello sis @iamcessy. sabi OB ko, nanonormalize or nacocontrol naman daw yung pagiging polycystic pero once pcos, always na daw ganon. like sa akin, pcos bilateral ako kaya hindi ako nagoovulate, nalaman ko jan 2015. tapos hanggang last TVS scan ko last may 2016 pcos pa din although 17/17 yung follicles sa both ovaries and hindi pa siya normal.  pero nung october nalaman ko preggy ako. so yung right ko nagnormalize, pinapacontinue na lang yung metformin para macontrol.

Sis yung saken naging normal both. I was diagnosed nnung 2014, after 6 months nagclear yung cysts sa left, then a few months after clear na both. Sadly, I found out i have polycystic ovaries again on both just a few weeks ago. Sabi ng OB ko we can't address it pa right now kasi I'm still breastfeeding my 7 month old. So parang for now, it's normal that i don't ovulate because of lactation.

[IamCessy]

^salamat mga sis!

[alexmack]

Hi sissies! I also have PCO and my gynecologist advised me to lose some weight. Mag eeffort nga lang talaga ako ng bongga kasi hindi ako ipinanganak na slim. Na-D&C na rin ako three years ago para daw macheck kung may malignancy and thank God negative naman.
Three years later, irregular na ulit ang menses ko at overweight pa rin ako. Now I'm starting to worry kasi bale wala yung pagpapagamot ko noon. Pero una sa lahat, alam ko dapat magpapayat ako. Kahit konti lang. Ikakasal pa naman ako this coming Dec.
May masa-suggest ba kayong OBGyne around Metro Manila na mura lang maningil? Gusto ko na ulit magpatingin pero hindi na sa dati kong Gyne. Ang mahal kasi. Lol!
Thanks sa sasagot. God bless!
