new problems

by camachosgirl, Jul 18, 2008 03:10PM
Hi, I've been diagnosed with PCOS for some time now.My periods are never normal. My body can't lose the weight I've tried dieting and exercising. I can't seem to have children and I have increased hair growth, now I get stomach pains which cause me to vomit after eating. I'm only 29 years old and I feel much older. My obgyn was giving me Nexium which is used for people with type 2 diabete, in taking that My periods are normal but that's about it. My hair growth is still an issue as well as the weight.

Can you please give me some advice or let me of an alternative medicine I could use that could help with the nausea, vomiting and weight gain.

try lecithin, choline, and inositol.  Honestly.. I HATE to say this.. but the fat on your belly is creating hormones.. the only way to get rid of this fat is one month of SEVERE calorie restriction, im talking 500-700 calories per day and NO animal products, no sugar, no bread (take a complete omega capsule 3 times daily), with 1 hour at the gym and tons of water.  It sounds like anorexia, I know, but trust me, you must get the fat under control and "re-train" your body. Ca[rylic acid kills off the bacteria and yeasts growing in your digestive track and body that feed off of the abnormal insulin problems with PCOD, bacterias that bind to protiens and cannot be killed by conventional antibiotics.

I had nausea, and I actually had to vomit once - and I dont like to vomit, so that was pretty serious for me, i couldnt control it.  Do you ever have a 'racing' heart feeling when you want to vomit?  I had huge weight gains (seemes lke the weight gain came in one day), and it started to make me so tired, no doctors could not find out what was wrong except for the ultrasound showing many underdevelpoed follicles.  I decided to get rid of my fat by calorie restriction and suppliments, i lost the weight and I get my periods normally, no more nausea, no more fatigue- but the follicles on my ovaries still get prevented from maturing.   About the hair thing, just shave it, or take it off- actually all women have lots of hair, we groom it even without pcod we have moustaches etc!
I found the ideal weight to keep my periods in check, and my mental state normal.  The doctors seem to be overlooking something, and I think that there are so many things causing "PCOD".  The fact that you get your period means that you can get pregnant.. however, you migth be depressed or perhaps a vaginal infection that might have scarred your falopian tubes?  Have you had a an ultrasound?
