PCOS

PCOS is something I've dealt with since I was 17. I was a "late bloomer" then never really bloomed at all. My mom had years of people telling her "once she "starts" all that baby weight will fall off." Well, I never started and it didn't fall off. Shit just got weird. I got horrible acne and weird body hair and no period. I also got CRAZY. My mom swore I was pregnant and that's why I didn't have a period. Boy, was she WAY wrong. I met a doctor when I was 17 that diagnosed me with PCOS. I've been on multiple medications and am currently not taking any. The best I've ever done with it is when I was doing Weight Watchers and lost 50 lbs. Those pounds have crept back on and I am having "symptoms" again. I am considering getting back on Metformin. I have an IUD, so that helps with the hormones. Hopefully, I can help with the weight loss.

The older I get, the more I want a baby. I can't let PCOS predict my future.
