Hey there original.gif

Ok you say you have polycystic ovarian syndrome, now is this cysts on your ovaries???? sorry i know that sounds so stupid doesnt it? blush.gif

If it is, then i would head to the docs, i had cysts on my ovaries which was increasing my insulin levels, no amount of walking or eating right was helping at all sad.gif

He put me onto Dyaformin tabs, which decreases the amount of Insulin being created from the cysts on your ovaries original.gif That in turn allows you to lose weight!

At first my doc thought i had diabetes forming, however when we did u/s it showed cysts!

Since i took 3months worth of them, i have now been able to lose close to 6kilos in just 3 weeks of dieting original.gif

I hope that helps original.gif

Hi Donna,
I put a post in the other forum asking you to come for a look here but you already have! Well have you tried Herbalife? It really works and you can see from the other threads here that there are many ladies who are getting results on it. I also have had one lady who had the same situation as you and she was TTC. She lost weight but is still TTC.
Send me a pm if you want more info but also check out our Herbalife threads.
Emma.
