Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome/Sounds like miracle surgery to me.

[Guest guest]

I happened on a really interesting article about this

syndrome and believe some of the women have this. I

seem unable to copy it though. If you are interested

and wish to read it, maybe if you googled the

following you could bring it up and then read it. It

has to do with the surgery called Roux N Y which is a

gastric bypass surgery which seems to be doing all

kinds of things that are good besides weight

loss--like curing diabetes with the surgery itself and

not the weight loss. Apparently it changes ones

hormone system in certan advantageous ways. Who would

thunk it? Too bad diabetics can't get the surgery

unless they also have the weight??

Copy and google the following:

I had (HAD) a mild case of PCOS. Diabetes runs in my family. I wasn't "typical" as I'm not obese, don't have acne, facial hair, etc. I already exercised 4-5x per week. I kicked it up to exercising 6-7x per week and yoga for 10 min every morning. I had been on metformin and had amenorrhea for six months and was told I would need to stay on metformin indefinitely to regulate my periods. After a month or two of more exercise I went off the metformin and it's been seven months with regular periods PLUS ovulation confirmed by basal body temping and ovulation tests. Exercise has been a MIRACLE for me for PCOS. Lindsey
