Hi there, me and my husband had the same problem and several weeks ago I read about a diet program that does wonders for people exactly with this problem, but I was skeptical and did not believe, in any case I look for a solution to the problem until i read an article on some site that does testing on sorts of noconventional medical products, and they persuaded me that this plan works! It actually convinced my husband and since than he dropped another 15 pounds.

this program actually put into your head how to balance what he eatsand how to keep his will power to succeed.
Encourage you to try or at least read the article.

Has anyone had any major bleeding before surgery that wouldnt stop??  They have now put me on high dosage of BC pills and it worked, But once I stoped them 3 days later I started to bleed again. My surgery is very concerned about this since ill be on blood thinners after surgery.

Just wondering if anyone else has had the same problem? 

The same thing happened to me. I was on nuva ring for several years, and started having pain. Turns out I have fibroids. Switched to oral birth control, but still had pain. Went off birth control for about 8 months, had no periods and no pain. Been back on BC for a month now. Just had my first cycle since march--- but no pain! I am thinking that the break from synthetic hormones made my fibroids shrink, therefore alleviating the pain. Just my guess.

Good luck, you are not alone!

Do not give up hope!

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 (after many years of irregular periods, facial hair, etc.) I was put on the pill at 13 to "regulate" my periods. Fast foward to 1999, at age 25 when I got married and came off the pill so we could immediately start trying. No luck, stil irregular, frustrated and tried almost everything short of IVF. Lost hope and gave up.

March 25, 2010 - Gastric Bypass (RNY) and lost 130 lbs by Dec 2010.
No more diabetes, no more high blood pressure, no more sleep apnea...yay!
The doctor cautioned me that my fertility could be affected and not to get pregnant before 18 months post surgery. Wen to my 18 month check up, have maintained my weight and all vitamin levels are good, so I got the green light to try!!

October 30th, 2011 - Went to the Walgreen's Take Care Clinic for an eye infection and found out I am PREGNANT!!! (Had to take a uring test to make sure in case I needed antibiotics). What a shock!! Thought it would never happen.

I am almost 8 weeks along now, due on July 3rd, 2012! I am 37 and will be 38 when I deliver.

Good luck to you!

I have an appointment w/the surgeon next week and am still trying to decide between the VSG and RNY.  I really want the VSG but have heard about a lot of people still having a really hard time losing weight b/c of their PCOS.  I kind of have a double whammy, as I also have hypothyroidism.  Any thoughts?
