Chelsea • Mommy of two.

I want to hear everyones stories! I was recently diagnosed with PCOS. Me and my husband have a son who is a year and a half. I was much smaller when I became pregnant with my son so I really didn't have any symptoms. I had a couple chin hairs and a small amount of acne but my periods were very regular so I never really even thought about it. I gained quite a bit of weight while I was pregnant and when my son was born that is when the acne started and it just never went away. About 6 months later I started getting facial hair and was starting to find it very weird that my stomach was still sticking out. I went to my doctor and they tested my thyroid but they didn't test for pcos until I went back last week. Ever since my son was born I have been trying to lose weight. Of course I lost about forty pounds in the first couple of weeks after but I have only lost about 10 since then and it has come off soo slow. I'm hoping Metformin will help me with this.
