Can pcos give you mood swings?

Question

I was recently diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and I was wondering if anyone else notices mood swings worse than other days? Mostly pissed off and upset. On those days I also feel like I'm about to eat my whole fridge, but thankfully I stocked up on healthy food, so it isn't too bad. I've been having a hard time dealin with this, reading online isn't always correct. I just wanted get some other opinions.

Answer

Well that definitely gives some comfort, I've always been a bitter person I guess you would say, but I seems lately my moods have been bouncing off the walls. I was diagnosed a few weeks ago, and my change in diet has actually made me feel a lot better at times. Thank you so much for your help!

Answer

PCOS throws off your hormones, so it's completely normal to have mood swings and weird symptoms with it.  I believe it also increases your risk for anxiety and depression.  I have it as well, I'm happy to answer and questions you have.  I've had it since I was a teenager, but officially diagnosed a few years ago.
