Sorry I can not answer your question but I do have PCOS and had a hysterectomy 4 years ago. I am also starting my weight loss journey. Please let me know what replies you get as I am also interested in the outcome. I am planning on having the RNY. Thanks, Becky

Hello...  I had RNY 5 years ago, had PCOS for almost 30 years and then had a hysterctomy 2 years ago.  I have lost 217 lbs with RNY with no problem, it helped my PCOS symptoms some but didn't get rid of all of the side effects.  I had to have a hysterectomy because I developed fibroids in my tubes and my GYN discovered endometriosis (sp?) also (I was in a lot of pain for about 6 months).  Anyway, if you have any specific questions feel free to send me a message, I don't get on this forum too often.   Have a great day!!

Thanks for your reply- WOW you have really excelled in your weight loss journey! I hope to have good results also. I have some of the side effects of pcos i am just concerned that lapband wont help me rid myself of the extra weight, but i am committed and willing to try. Thanks and best of luck to you! melissa
