Q: Pcos & Weight Gain
asked by: SandyWalsh on January 3rd, 2005

Hi all,
I was diagnosed with pcos many years ago and I have suffered all the symptoms imaginable, from infertility to weight gain etc.... I might have a period twice a year if I am lucky but what I have noticed in this last year was I have tried the atkins diet a few times and when I am not eating sugar I have my period just like normal (like the first week of not eating any sugar). I am insulin resistant and I wonder if that has something to do with me not having a period. So what I have been doing is once every couple months I lay off sugar completely for about a week and I start my period. But there has got to be a easier way to menstrate. Does anyone have any input on this or explanation?
