Lots of people with PCOS.
fr1endly2/Lisa to start with.
Do a search, and several threads will come up, though there hasn't been one in a while.

Yes, it does get better. I am 2 months out; have not had to take my glucouphage since surgery. My TOM has returned to normal, very heavy, but on time. As for the hair, it has definitely slowed down. I still have to wax, but this has really helped everything with me and my PCOS. I had one of the worst cases my endo had seen too!

yes, i do and unfortunately once you get the hair, unless you get it surgically removed, it stays. But it will slow down.

HERE HERE HERE!!!
I am PCOS!
cause me 13 years of infertlity before conceiving a baby....
( i adopted 2 kids prior).
I will say I never went on meds for my PCOS because when i had it
they didnt offer meds for it. BUT it didnt hamper my weight loss
i lost 143 lbs in 12 months post op. I do now have very regular
cycles, every 21 day and never we regular in most of my life.
SO for me it has helped me and wasnt a problem for me to have
the surgery!!!!
