I've already been doing a lot of PCOS research, I should say, cos I pretty much came to this conclusion on my own quite some time ago. And while my first step will be to talk to a nutritionist and a gyn, I'm not entirely averse to giving my system some kind of sharp nudge back on track with some form of chemical impetus-- metformin or low-hormone birth control. I've spent a verrrry long time watching my moods carefully, and am not entirely anti-chemical there, as pretty much everyone knows. Lexapro is my hero. I'd like to look into something like Seasonale. I LIKE not having my period.
I'm actually pretty upbeat: treating this will help with my weight, and quite possibly my sleeping issues-- I hadn't known before that sleep apnea is one of the symptoms.
But then, of course, this gets into all those hidden fertility issues swirling in my head. And that's a whole other thing.
