PCOS,insulin resistance,high prolactine,brain tumor...please help....
I am 23 yrs old, been diagnosed with PCOS, trying to conceive for almost a year. Doctor prescribed Dydrogesterone,10mg,to help me get and regularize my periods. Took the mention pill since May,07 to Oct. 07, i had to stop because i was having even more irregular periods, spotting.
Now, today ( jan 30) went to doctor, the cysts on my ovaries are still the same ( normal sign of a patient with pcos ) but as ive been ttc for over a year, he suggested that i should take a blood test to see how levels of prolactin are. If it is too high, he said that there might be a tumor in the brain.
I wanted to ask, and try to find out if you have been diagnosed with the same, or you know somebody. What are the chances of getting pregnant ? Does the tumor has to be removed? or you only take pills to get the prolac. level low? does it have any effect on the baby, or in the mother? is there any risks? Also, can anyone explain to me what insulin resistance means...? does it have to do with high levels of sugar ( diabetes) also?
Thank you very much for your answers...

my treatment is wonderful for my diabetes caused by pcod spirolactone and metformin my periods feel so much better and so do i also my pms is better oh thankyou jesus!
hey I have th pcos, the chances of getting pregnant are'nt really that high :(
I'm really depressed with the low precentages of pregnancy & the high precentages of miscarriages
I dont know about the tumor but about the insulin my Dr. told me that it was proven that it could increase the chances of getting pregnant & could lower chances of being diabetic, my Dr. didnt prescribe it to me
she told me that it was too soon to take it as long as i'm not planning to have children anytime soon.
you should check your hormones get a test
& I wish you all the best of luck
