thin with PCOS
I'm new to this forum and was just recently diagnosed with PCOS. I was on BC for about 8 years and stopped taking it 1.5 years ago - haven't had a natural period since. I'm 5'4 and 105# - underweight, which most doctors blamed as the reason for not having a menstrual cycle.
I am a dietitian and uncomfortable taking harsh medications. Currently I am trying a no sugar diet. I've never had my insulin levels checked, but I've seen several studies with successful conception from diet modifications. Also, my sister has PCOS and has 5 children. She swears that all she did was eliminate sugar from her diet for about 3 months and she got pregnant.
Anyone on here have experience with PCOS and diet modification? I've been off sugar for about 3 weeks now, so I'm hoping it works!!
