Additionally, Metformin helps regulate blood sugar, not lower it. Finally, the stomach distress goes away as you get used to your dose. Please try not to spread misinformation! Dear Stephanie, I am hoping that you can help me decide if going on the paleo diet is the right thing for me, or it will throw me into another tail spin.
About two years ago, something went haywire with me and I got really sick. I took an adrenal supplement before all of tis happened, but I have no clue if it was that or something else. I went to lots of doctors and they all though it might be hyperthyroid, but all tests were normal — though my tsh was. My estrogn was completely bottomed out. I had also limited my gluten intake. So after giving up on traditional medical doctors I went to see an acupuncturist. She seemed to help the most. Just lots of bone broths because my system was so depleted of minerals.
Fast forward 2 years and now I am gaining weight like crazy — belly and back side. I have tons of extra hair. I exercise 3 times a week. I am sleeping better now, but have occasional set back. Blood test from doctor back when I sent you the original message in October results were T3 2. I think that would be extremely early. About 8 months ago I underwent extensive test with my doctor because I am having a really hard time losing weight. My husband and I recently started on the Paleo diet and a new workout routine to shake things up. I also tested as pre-diabetic, which is a huge concern for me and a factor in choosing Paleo.
I started the paleo diet two weeks ago. I have been feeling great but I have been spotting and having allot of cramps. Do you think it is making my PCOS worse? Or do you think my body is just trying o regulate and adjust to my new way of eating? Thanks for your help! But that also totally depends on WHAT you are eating on paleo and what sort of changes you have made. My bloodwork showed slightly elevated LH, but that was it. I had no cysts, only a number of follices on an ultrasound. A few months ago, I started working out times a week and cut out all grains and processed sugar — still eat legumes but am careful about fruit and never drink juice.
I FEEL a lot better more energy, less irritable, etc. Is my diet making symptoms worse, or is this a normal process to recovery? Through a low carb lifestyle my periods have become regular, blood sugar levels have normalized and cholesterol looks great. Good luck to all you ladies. We can beat this. Just need to find the right combination of food and exercise to do so.
If someone needs to maintain weight loss, turning to more fats and cholesterols seems counterintuitive. And many fats come along with a fair amount of protein, too. Ironically all of this information flying around is pretty stressful — something everything says to avoid. Easier said than done, I guess! I am about to the point where I am going to throw in the towel and go on the medicine my doctor has recommended or even do replacement hormones.
It is unrealistic to think that. And this is telling me to cut back on working out.. So lower protein, no nuts, no dairy already doing no dairy , and no fruits. Sounds like I get a chicken breast per day. If not I will just stick with it to be healthier. OMG — yes, this!! I still enjoy some dairy, limited fruits, etc etc…I can only make so many changes and pick so many battles at a time, you know? I really need to stop doing google searches that land me on posts like these. I was diagnosed with both of these health problems in the same week and I have been struggling to make the right health choices.

I exercise every day and I eat well. I am usually I would love any insight anyone has to my unique case. I am thinking about taking the risk and getting back on orthotricyclene because my symptoms are intolerable. My doctors are being very nonchalant bout all of it and I am at the end of my rope.

And this so happens to be as heavy as I need to be in order to menstruate, not have acne, and many of my other hormone problems. This may not be the case for you as you are obviously a different strand of DNA aand also have experience with the pill… so I say this only to encourage you to consider reconciling yourself to a higher weight if you find that it alleviates symptoms. Stress is a big factor, I think, and I think over time as you heal and your stress levels drop then you will no longer feel the need for BC to regulate symptoms.
I know its a hard and long road, but trust me when I tell you that there is always progress. Thank you so much for this article!
Unfortunately the hirstuism slowly got worse over the years despite eating normally and putting weight back on I never got back to 60kg though. One thing that happened after that diet was very interesting though; before I went on it I was a total bread addict — now I have to force myself to eat any starches and it makes it harder to put weight back on. What irritates me most about your article is the lack of support that you have for a Paleo Diet. I have been eating Paleo for 2 years now combined with crossfit. I was diagnosed with PCOS several years ago and was overweight.
I lost 40 lbs and kept it off and feel way better. The paleo diet helped me tremendously. People do not have to go strict paleo. I feel as if the carb load did not help improve PCOS symptoms at all. I think ultimately it is different for every individual and we have to be completely honest with ourselves and get a healthy dose of exercise x a week alongside a natural diet. A natural diet will always help improve PCOS and weight issues. Thanks for the article though. Ok, what kind of exercises are the best for PCOS? HIIT is to much for me lately.
