Guest guest Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 Hello All, I was just diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome To help control the symptoms I was prescribed birth control pills. I was wondering if anyone is familiar with this syndrome and could offer some advice on how to control the very unwanted and embarrassing symptoms. Thanks Jaclyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 YES! Get off of birth control pills to control it. It is not controlling it, it is masking it. I also have this syndrome, and it is just the poster child for insulin resistance. Birth control pills were once thought to help it, but it doesn't change the basic situation in your body. Please contact me off list for more information on this...I personally have my PCOS under control through several methods...and my diet is helping to reverse the insulin resistance. Everyone on here can probably help you with herbal things to help balance you as well.
