My doctor recommended that I eat every two or so hours to help with digestion, prevent the weight gain, and regulate my insulin/glucose levels, and this has honestly helped me so much, and it helped me stop the binge eating.
@@valentiinaquiintaniila5563 are u asking me No i do not take any medecin i did dry intermitting fasting for 2 month and now thanks god i am pregnante Defying the doctors words that i will never get pregnant without medication

The sleep one!!! I’ve noticed that I’ve been falling asleep in class more and it would frustrate me because I knew I would get the amount of sleep I needed so why am I always tired??? Thank you! This really helped!

Try packing a snack for class. It may help if your blood sugar is low. Keep a journal by your bed and note if you wake up/how you felt after rest. Eat half a plate of greens (spinach,kale or a big salad) and with dinner before bed, try relaxing before sleeping (reading/listening to soft music) and wear a sleep mask. Try taking supplements even just vitamin c and/or iron at night may help.
I think that one of the biggest problems is that people don’t talk about it as often as they talk about any other female health issue. Raising awareness about PCOS is paramount to help girls get early diagnosis, know what to do once they are aware of the fact they have it and make the right decisions about their lifestyle. Thanks for sharing your experience
I know same. I do know that it is impacted by what I have eaten or sometimes if im too busy to notice that It’s time to eat ( yes I know I shouldn’t do that but sometimes I slip up especially when I’m focused seriously on something) . So I would say that working on your food choices will help a lot. Again it’s the hormonal imbalance that is causing the issue. Anything you can do to balance them should help too.
Throw the pills away sis!! ( if you're taking any hormonal pills at all) always speak to your gynic about this. Also, meditate, try journaling, and go to bed early(idky this helps but am a better person when I go to bed at 8). Eat dark chocolate too.
I’m 18 and just got diagnosed with PCOS My doctor didn’t really give me information about it, other than what it is. Thank you for making this video. It really helped me understand what’s going on with my body
Hey, I got diagnosed when I was 14, they put me on birth control but im so inconsistent i always forgot. I had horrible acne and oily skin, mood swings, hair growth in places ya girl didnt want it to grow, and then the struggle of my boyfriend asking if I can get pregnant. I recently cut meat out and that seemed to help my bloating, gas and acne a bit. What are your symptoms? I have tried yoga which really helps. ALSO, pick up some Kava Kava tea, 2 tea bags chug it & i promise you will feel some relief. Good luck on the Pcos journey!
I had no clue about the sleep issues being linked to PCOS. My Dr sent me to a sleep specialist and they didn't even tell me that either. So good to know and will be looking into magnesium, thank you so much :D
amazing. i got diagnosed TODAY with pcos. and have 14 cysts. i’ve been heartbroken. i came to youtube and found you. Thank you. this is crazy how so much relates to me. i’m vegan as well. but need to switch to plant based 100%. Thank you for your tips.
It’s all different for each person - and it should be! We all have unique bodies. I’m glad veganism works for you. It didn’t work for me. When I cut out caffeine completely my body started to align again. Caffeine wrecked my fertility and period. And don’t be heartbroken! You’ll be fine ♥️
Thank you!! I have (major) excessive hair growth & when I had all those tests done my Dr. was like ‘Oh, you have PCOS. Here’s some meds’ and that was several years ago! She’s not really said much since then so I knew basically none of this!
Sounds very familiar. My theory is doctors don’t say anything to avoid having to deal with a question they don’t have an answer too or to avoid admitting that modern medicine doesn’t have all the answers either , or that the approach needed is integrated
Thank you so much Ula. I’m loving your helpful videos so much. I’m a medical professional living in Japan (so carb heavy😅) and your videos are wonderful and holistic. I’m always inspired to manage my PCOS to the best I can and your videos are part of that. I didn’t know about the sleep problems also being part of my PCOS. Makes sense and I do find exhausting myself with good exercise helps this a lot.
Really glad THIS was the first video I watched about PCOS. I didn't know what it was, how it effects my body, and ways to go about it. My doctor gave me three options: birth control, metformin, or nothing at all. And none of it really made sense to me. This helps me a lot in knowing what to expect as I go along treating it! Thank you for your research, and for sharing this information! Just found out today that I have PCOS so this calmed a LOT of my worries and answered so many questions!
i really think i have PCOS because i have every single symptom, im 17 years old, havent had my period in 6 months, can never sleep properly, have period cramps but no blood, binge eat all the time etc etc i had an ultra sound done of my ovaries and my doctor found no cysts so hearing that women can still have PCOS without having the cysts is shocking to me, my doctor referred me to see a gynaecologist because they couldnt see any cysts and now i have to wait another 6 months to see the gynaecologist
You can have pcos without the cysts. To me, pcos is more of a hormonal imbalance and not just cysts. Talk to your doctor about birth control, metformin, or even spironolactone. Now I’m not a doctor so listen to yours. Do not doubt yourself though. If you feel off about your body, then try and figure out what’s wrong. Sorry if it’s late reply lol I have pcos too
when i was first diagnosed with pcsos i had cysts on my ovaries. i had an ultrasound done a year ago and they found no cysts but i still have pcos because i still have other symptoms. i would say try balancing your hormones naturally through diet and meditation. and of course listen to what your doctor has to say but most of the time their only recommendation is birth control which i feel like is a bandaid for the issue not a solution.
I’m 22 and was diagnosed when I was 17 and there are things you listed here that just make me go wow that is me ! I’m still trying to figure out so much about it and it’s 1:44am where I am so I can get the no sleepy thing perfectly 😂❤️
Thank you so much for this video. I try to follow a strict diet but at least once or twice a week I get the worse binge eating cravings and always blame them on my own lack of self-control which has been so terrible emotionally. This was so helpful!
I'm so glad I found your channel. I was diagnosed 2 years back and have been trying to live a healthy lifestyle for the past month. And NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR DOG!! 😍😍❤️ Dogs are amazing!!! My labrador always keeps me out of stressful ways!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Great content!
1. 0:35-Not all women with PCOS have cysts. 2. 0:54-Not all people are going to understand your condition. 3. 1:30-Infertility is not certain. 4. 2:17-Exercise should be varied. 5. 2:50-Binge eating is a real issue of PCOS. 6. 3:42-You should get your blood sugar tested every year. 7. 4:14-Cysts on ovaries don't cause PCOS. 8. 4:32-Eating fat and protein in each meal is important. 9. 5:03-Can't approach PCOS with only one solution. 10. 6:27-Difficulty in sleeping is twice as common if you have PCOS.
Number 3, when I first got diagnosed and read that I felt horrible and it made me feel really bad for my boyfriend cause I know he really wants kids. Finding you really helped me understand pcos better.
Dear ula, I am so glad that I found your yt, it helped me alot. I was diagnozed a week ago on my 23 birthday, and I was really afraid. I never heard about pcos befor. But your videos take some fears away from me. Thank you a lot. How does pcos effect your social life? What should someone with pcos eat when you eat in a reataurant? In a italian restaurant for example. I really enjoy going eating on a restaurant from time to time with friends. But I dont want to be that girl, who is always dieting and can't joy them. So It would be really nice when you could show how sb. With pcos can mentain their hormonal balance and enjoying eating outside.
thank you so much for this video!! I was diagnosed years ago when I was a teen with PCOS and got prescribed birth control pill thinking that would resolve my problem for good cause that's what my doctor kind of told me. Since I got off the pill I am especially struggling with acne and tried every single topical treatment when in reality is one of the most common signs of PCOS and NOBODY ever told me!! :(((
Didn’t know the sleep & binge eating ones, and I struggle with both! Recently got diagnosed shortly after coming off the pill (would like to thank all my past doctors for not informing me about how the pill can mask a lot of problems and let me be on it for 10 years, and now I’m all new to everything when I want to get pregnant and I don’t ovulate 😢) - your point about different solutions really helped as well, I’ve been given medication and I haven’t started them yet but kept thinking oh will it be bad for me / get a dependency, should I just tackle this naturally first... so that helped a lot! Thanks, I immediately subscribed to your channel ❤️
This is so helpful! I just barely found out that I have PCOS, like today actually, and it's really helpful to know all of this! It gives me hope in being able to heal myself and work around PCOS.
Thanks for posting this wonderful video! I learned a lot of new things watching this. I cant wait to share this video with my online pcos support group!😊😊
26, trying to get pregnant and only now have I discovered that I have PCOS. So strange, three months ago everything seemed to be ok, my period used to be quite balanced, and out of the blue here we are, extreme mood swings, getting emotional over anything, not having my period, and also feeling constantly nauseous. Thinking I was pregnant just to find out it's PCOS. Ugh... Thank you so much for the information, though! It really helps those of us who know nothing and don't really know what to do :)
So I was diagnosed with PCOS earlier this week- I’m 19 and gained over 30 lbs over my first year at college and my period haven’t been regular in months. So when I went to my OBGYN (who I trust with my life) he immediately did all the tests and came back positive for high levels of androgen and insulin resistance. My Dr. said that he recommends 3 ways of helping PCOS 1) A low dosage of birth control to help reset my cycle 2) Metformin a medicine to help my insulin resistance and blood sugar levels 3) a low carb and sugar diet as I can’t sustain a keto diet at school I’ve hear horror stories of PCOS women using birth control, so I want to hear from both sides of the spectrum? Why do some love it vs hate it? I’m young and the only one in my family with this problem. I’m obviously terrified but excited for a change in my health and happiness!
Gianna Casale I used to take birth control and metformin and it worked for me especially with weight loss. But birth control can cause an increased of appetite. However, the metformin should tackle that increased appetite. I say try it and if you don’t like birth control or metformin side effects then talk to your doctor about it. I’ve had pcos since I was 13 btw rn I’m 19
THANK YOU for mentioning #1. I dont have cysts luckily but have EVERY syptom there is, male pattern hairloss, excessive body hair growth, heavy acne, irregular periods, weight gain that wont go away even after trying a LOT of diets etc. So i got the diagnosis. But I felt like I was a "fake" pcos patient cause I didn't have cysts even though I have more symptoms then others and got my diagnosis.
Your dog is so cute ! Thank you for this video. I did'nt know before that we have to eat fats every single meals. I also did'nt know that my difficulty to sleep is due to PCOS... Thank you again ! I am french so, it is not always easy to understand for me but your videos are very helpful ! I will continue to follow you !
I have been seeing a fertility specialist for about 6 months and get regular ultrasounds. I always have 10+ follicles on each follicle. The nurse explained that this means my hormones are being spread really thinly over the high amount of follicles I have. Does anyone have this high number of follicles? If you follow a low carb diet, did your ultrasound results change and did you see less follicles each month?
I was diagnosed infertile at 19, told was never gonna have kids never had a regular period, pretty much checked off all the symptoms of PCOS BUT last 2 months we celebrated my daughters first birthday conceived naturally with herbs remedies
I have had pcod since 3 years and I myself am fresh out of medical school. I have been having difficulty in sleeping when under stress of any sort. And now I understand why.But till date no one , or no standard book correlated the sleep disturbances to PCOS, which is surprising.
Thanks as always for these amazing videos. Your super informative videos really changed my life and helped me to know more about my body and my PCOS conditions. Stay blessed and happy always.
Binge eating, mood swings and sleep is my biggest thing with PCOS. I’ve tried diets and exercise nothing seems to work. It comes off but goes straight back on and I can’t seem to loose more then 3to4kgs
I’ve been unable to make my own family and husband understand why I get so moody and depressed all of a sudden. I mean I’m 28 and married, so obviously not throwing a tantrum! Wish I knew they understood. Sometimes I feel so lonely and angry at myself.
I have a partner with pcos, so being a guy I try to know more about it my partner had mood swings but not as bad now and I think she calmed down alot but is it true with pcos you only have 3 or 4 periods in 12 months as I know she sometimes has period symptoms with out the bleed but the next month could be a long bleed
Hi, I didn’t knew that my problem with sleep has to do with pcos. I always have the problem to sleep at night & it takes almost 2 hrs for me to get asleep , now I knew it . Thanks for sharing 😊
Ive had it for 9 yrs and didnt know about some of the things u mentioned my doctors pretty much diagnosed me n told me to diet n exercise n then left me on my own how lovely x
I have been told by multiple doctors to lose 5-10% to help my cycles.... Like that totally worked. 😒 *sarcasm* My obgyn said I had obesity "caused" PCOS... Hmmmm. Ignoring all the other problems such as I was a NORMAL weight until about puberty, and my noticable symptoms started when I was in an extremely stressed time (moved provinces, was in a horrible job, started school and injured my good knee within a year)- oh and before my blood tests which showed insulin resistance which can cause obesity. He also diagnosed me with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease without a ultrasound and just based on liver enzymes. Lo and behold, my gallbladder was removed this year and everything came back NORMAL afterwards. Including C-reaactive protein which is a inflammation measure. And he was supposed to be an "expert" in PCOS. I was pissed.
This list is so helpful. You asked what I didn’t know ? Can I say everything on this list . I feel like I’m all alone in dealing with this nobody is giving me the help i need. Only thing my doctor says is lose weight or lose more weight or some other variation of that , join weight watchers, join slimming world join whatever other weight loss group out there .
PCOS sucks man. Found out when I was 15, hormone therapy and the pill turned out to have a terrible reaction with me, and I already eat healthy and I'm at a healthy, if a little low, weight. My worst symptom is just THE PAIN (I also have an abnormally large amount of cysts on both sides, and uteran scarring due to hormone therapy). My abdomen feels like it's being torn to shreds and no amount of doctor-prescribed medication helps. Any of you PCOS girls know a way to deal with it?
I am a girl and i became 18 this month. I have gotten thick hairs on my boobs, chin and butt when i was 16. I also have gotten bad acne on my chin and cheeks out of the blue when i was 16. And also when i was 16 my hair start falling out. Im save to say that i have lost half of my hair.. i also have noticable love handles, and is it really hard to stay on one weight for me. i had my hormones tested but they were Stable. I went to the gynecologist en did a echo (a outside echo, not a inside one) and the gynecologist couldnt see anything incorrect. When i search my symptons up all i see is ‘pcos’ but my doctor said that thats not possible because i still get my periode often. And also because the gynecologist couldnt find anything. Does anybody think that i have still PCOS? Because my doctor doesnt take me serious she didnt help me at all. What could i do next? What should i ask my doctor for? I hope someone anwsers, im really sad about al these symptons.. (sorry for my english it isnt my first language)
Hi, if you're new to the club, welcome!! Here are few thing you need to do immediately :- 1:- throw away the pills your gynic gave you. They are absolutely worse. If your PCOS is in the beginning stage you CAN control alot of symptom. I didn't know this but my facial hair growth was actually boosted by my pills. 2:- pill bleeds are not periods (louder for the people at the back). You are physically taking this hormone for outside which will give you depression eventually, forcing your body to bleed, and this is not period. 3:- cranberries, papaya, pineapple, walnuts, spearmint tea, flax seeds, chia seeds , absolute dark chocolate - your new best friends. Eat these every day (except for the fruits, you can alternate them). These foods naturally are good for estrogen production or help with pcos. 4:- diary, sugar, gluten. What do these all have in common? A big NO. These really mess with the insulin in your body. And girl diabeties is the last thing you want rn. 5:- hair fall, facial hair and back pain- high testrostron levels. Fatiuge-some thing to do with thyroid. Please speak to your gynic about this, get your thyroid checked. 6:- yoga = win win. Why? simple, it's easy, works effectively and you can do it on your bed!! How cool is that. When ever I want my period I just eat a lot of mangoes, cranberries, papaya and pineapple. I also do abdominal yoga. It really help. This is what I've learnt from listening to my body. So get a pair of ear phones and listen to yours to. It's not that hard, you will become better and happier eventually. Oh also I eat a lot of carbs to get my period. I don't know why this works but it works (at least for me). In case of you ever feel lonely feel free to hit me on ig @survive_highschool_with_me. I might make this into a pcod related page but IDK.
Ive serious acne issues. My pores keep opening even after following the routine given dermatologist and even taking hormonal therapy. What should I do? Could ya help.
Hope this isn't too nosy,but have you ever taken provera for your menstrual cycle? I did start taking birth control but it wreaked my stomach...my periods are super intense..Wondering what your experience is.
I have PCOS, I have no cysts, I’m not infertile, I have no acne, but I do have unwanted hair ☹️ and and I am losing hair, I have oily skin, I get agitated quickly...I just need to figure out the best diet for me. I had no idea binge eating was a problem also because I really struggle with that one!
Hi lovely , Do you have any tips for skin discoloration due to pcos ?my neck is discolored and i am not overweight or diabetic or pre diabetic .I am doing exercise , eating well but still
Before i knew i had pcos i used to binge eating. I found out saturday😞. I am so happy i found your channel. What are your thoughts on birth control to help with pcos?

Hiya I have an eating disorder for binge and purging how can I stop this and will this make my pcos worse if you could reply I would really appreciate this xxx
Yes, and yes. I know you were asking her, but I recently got diagnosed with PCOS after doing an extensive hormone blood panel. My testosterone levels are about double the normal level, and my A1C levels were pretty high too. Not diabetic levels yet. But basically with PCOS sugar levels are higher than most. So it is important to eat less carbs, more protein, more fiber, and like you are on a "diabetic diet." I am meeting with a dietitian to go over a health plan for me. It's a long road... but we have to do it. Hope that helped your question a little. 😊
Adna Alibasic Karen Ramos I’m a 16 year old with PCOS and the concept of taking birth control felt odd for me at first but I’ve honestly been seeing positive changes with it vs without it! My periods are now regular and I’m no longer depressed :)
NO, it actually isn't. Know that it's NOT FIXING YOUR BODY (back then I thought they were, go figure). It LOOKS like pills are helping you (hair is great, boobs are awesome, skin is beautiful), BUT you're NOT tackling the imbalance from the inside (I actually got cysts in my boobs, 4 of them, and horrible digestive problems). It's like drying the floor with the water open, you can keep drying as much as you like, it's never going to dry unless you close the water flow. So: no more contraceptive pills! I hate gynos who prescribe this crap automatically. Do remove processed foods and sugary stuff, reduce carbs (avoid refined, eat wholegrain), eat organic as much as possible, totaly remove junk food, drink plenty of water (2 liters per day), REMOVE SOY and DAIRY PRODUCTS (they imbalance your hormones even more), exercise (your body was made to move, so workout everyday, go for walks, dance, you name it, but move it - it's preferable to have more strength exercises than cardio coz cardio gets your hormones out of wack even more), do practice meditation to decrease your mood swings, spend time in nature to recharge (it's healthy and good for the soul). If you want to take supplements, go ahead but pills to sleep I think it's wrong too... In case you may have trouble sleeping, again, it's a consequence of the imbalance, so meditation and breathing exercises are pure gold. YOU NEED TO BALANCE AND WIND DOWN YOUR BODY. I'm not against doctors at all, but we need to be more conscious and pay attention to what happens to us and what the body is telling you. This addiction to pills in the Western world is pathetic and GENERALLY SPEAKING (I said, generally speaking, if you must take pills for serious illnesses, of course, go ahead) it just translates into lazyness and people not willing to listen to their bodies which are in pain-it's easier to just take a pill and fix all but not go to the SOURCE CAUSING THE PAIN. Pay attention to how you feel and what makes you feel wrong, whatever you eat, whatever you do, whoever you hang out with. Treat your body right and love it, remove toxicity in every form (food, environments, people, activities). AND, if you treat your body right, it will be healthy again and you'll be able to conceive without forcing anything. If you can't conceive, it's because there's something wrong and _THAT_ needs to be tackled, not forcing your body to conceive by being bombarded with other hormones. The sooner you start actually taking care of yourself, the better. If you don't believe me, fair enough, the best you can do is: STUDY PCOS, read as many books and research papers as you can, think, there's a lot of information out there and learn from your mistakes and share it with the rest of us. - Signed: Someone who's been diagnosed with PCOS 12 years ago, put on different pills, with horrible side effects in the long term like cysts in my breasts, horrible digestion problems, my gyno made a lot of mistakes and I had to learn from them. Study it for yourself so when you meet with your practioners you are PREPARED to talk about PCOS and find out if they're the right fit for you. One book I highly recommend reading is 8 STEPS TO REVERSE PCOS by Dr. Fiona McCulloch, I wish she had published it sooner. - Much Love, I hope this makes you think so you can find out for yourself! all the best ;-) Do use the medication app Calm, it has helped me a lot, even the masterclasses they have on nutrition, depression, happiness and more. One of the best investments I've ever made!

Please try intermitting fasting it helped my insuline resistance and there for i was less hungry
My doctor recommended that I eat every two or so hours to help with digestion, prevent the weight gain, and regulate my insulin/glucose levels, and this has honestly helped me so much, and it helped me stop the binge eating.
Do you take any medicine

What can help with my mood change. I have mood change like crazy. That’s is my biggest struggle.
I feel you sis
try vitamin D. it helps a lot
I know same. I do know that it is impacted by what I have eaten or sometimes if im too busy to notice that It’s time to eat ( yes I know I shouldn’t do that but sometimes I slip up especially when I’m focused seriously on something) . So I would say that working on your food choices will help a lot. Again it’s the hormonal imbalance that is causing the issue. Anything you can do to balance them should help too.
Throw the pills away sis!! ( if you're taking any hormonal pills at all) always speak to your gynic about this. Also, meditate, try journaling, and go to bed early(idky this helps but am a better person when I go to bed at 8). Eat dark chocolate too.

Hey, I got diagnosed when I was 14, they put me on birth control but im so inconsistent i always forgot. I had horrible acne and oily skin, mood swings, hair growth in places ya girl didnt want it to grow, and then the struggle of my boyfriend asking if I can get pregnant. I recently cut meat out and that seemed to help my bloating, gas and acne a bit. What are your symptoms? I have tried yoga which really helps. ALSO, pick up some Kava Kava tea, 2 tea bags chug it & i promise you will feel some relief. Good luck on the Pcos journey!
My 14 year old daughter was just diagnosed. I'm praying for you. I'm so glad you now have an answer
I had no clue about the sleep issues being linked to PCOS. My Dr sent me to a sleep specialist and they didn't even tell me that either. So good to know and will be looking into magnesium, thank you so much :D
My mood swing is my biggest issue along with the excessive hair growth........
Spearmint tea for hair growth, dark chocolate for mood swing. It's food all along.

It’s all different for each person - and it should be! We all have unique bodies. I’m glad veganism works for you. It didn’t work for me. When I cut out caffeine completely my body started to align again. Caffeine wrecked my fertility and period. And don’t be heartbroken! You’ll be fine ♥️
The binge eating and sleep deprivation part is so true. I recently joined the gym. I really hope it helps
Thank you!!
I have (major) excessive hair growth & when I had all those tests done my Dr. was like ‘Oh, you have PCOS. Here’s some meds’ and that was several years ago! She’s not really said much since then so I knew basically none of this!
Sounds very familiar. My theory is doctors don’t say anything to avoid having to deal with a question they don’t have an answer too or to avoid admitting that modern medicine doesn’t have all the answers either , or that the approach needed is integrated
I didn't know that problems with sleep has to do with my PCOS. Thank you for sharing
Serious insomnia and then spells of insane lethargy and more than 10 hours of sleep needed.
Thank you so much Ula. I’m loving your helpful videos so much. I’m a medical professional living in Japan (so carb heavy😅) and your videos are wonderful and holistic. I’m always inspired to manage my PCOS to the best I can and your videos are part of that. I didn’t know about the sleep problems also being part of my PCOS. Makes sense and I do find exhausting myself with good exercise helps this a lot.
Really glad THIS was the first video I watched about PCOS. I didn't know what it was, how it effects my body, and ways to go about it. My doctor gave me three options: birth control, metformin, or nothing at all. And none of it really made sense to me. This helps me a lot in knowing what to expect as I go along treating it! Thank you for your research, and for sharing this information! Just found out today that I have PCOS so this calmed a LOT of my worries and answered so many questions!
i really think i have PCOS because i have every single symptom, im 17 years old, havent had my period in 6 months, can never sleep properly, have period cramps but no blood, binge eat all the time etc etc i had an ultra sound done of my ovaries and my doctor found no cysts so hearing that women can still have PCOS without having the cysts is shocking to me, my doctor referred me to see a gynaecologist because they couldnt see any cysts and now i have to wait another 6 months to see the gynaecologist
Liv May if you think you have it, start treating it now and see how your body reacts.
You can have pcos without the cysts. To me, pcos is more of a hormonal imbalance and not just cysts. Talk to your doctor about birth control, metformin, or even spironolactone. Now I’m not a doctor so listen to yours. Do not doubt yourself though. If you feel off about your body, then try and figure out what’s wrong. Sorry if it’s late reply lol I have pcos too
Honey, it's okay not get your period. What you need to worry about is balancing those hormones of yours. Do as much research as you can.
when i was first diagnosed with pcsos i had cysts on my ovaries. i had an ultrasound done a year ago and they found no cysts but i still have pcos because i still have other symptoms. i would say try balancing your hormones naturally through diet and meditation. and of course listen to what your doctor has to say but most of the time their only recommendation is birth control which i feel like is a bandaid for the issue not a solution.
I’m 22 and was diagnosed when I was 17 and there are things you listed here that just make me go wow that is me ! I’m still trying to figure out so much about it and it’s 1:44am where I am so I can get the no sleepy thing perfectly 😂❤️
Thank you so much for this video. I try to follow a strict diet but at least once or twice a week I get the worse binge eating cravings and always blame them on my own lack of self-control which has been so terrible emotionally. This was so helpful!
I binge on sugary/sality foods. My PMS are crazy too!
I'm so glad I found your channel. I was diagnosed 2 years back and have been trying to live a healthy lifestyle for the past month. And NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR DOG!! 😍😍❤️ Dogs are amazing!!! My labrador always keeps me out of stressful ways!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Great content!

Number 3, when I first got diagnosed and read that I felt horrible and it made me feel really bad for my boyfriend cause I know he really wants kids. Finding you really helped me understand pcos better.
AdyStandfast I have pcos and have 5 kids. It is possible to get pregnant.
Dear ula, I am so glad that I found your yt, it helped me alot. I was diagnozed a week ago on my 23 birthday, and I was really afraid. I never heard about pcos befor. But your videos take some fears away from me. Thank you a lot.
How does pcos effect your social life? What should someone with pcos eat when you eat in a reataurant? In a italian restaurant for example. I really enjoy going eating on a restaurant from time to time with friends. But I dont want to be that girl, who is always dieting and can't joy them. So It would be really nice when you could show how sb. With pcos can mentain their hormonal balance and enjoying eating outside.
thank you so much for this video!! I was diagnosed years ago when I was a teen with PCOS and got prescribed birth control pill thinking that would resolve my problem for good cause that's what my doctor kind of told me. Since I got off the pill I am especially struggling with acne and tried every single topical treatment when in reality is one of the most common signs of PCOS and NOBODY ever told me!! :(((
How many time did you take the pill, and how are you now that you stopped it??
@@nimdailoth8115 3 years, do not recommend thou i felt swollen and had headaches all the times
Didn’t know the sleep & binge eating ones, and I struggle with both! Recently got diagnosed shortly after coming off the pill (would like to thank all my past doctors for not informing me about how the pill can mask a lot of problems and let me be on it for 10 years, and now I’m all new to everything when I want to get pregnant and I don’t ovulate 😢) - your point about different solutions really helped as well, I’ve been given medication and I haven’t started them yet but kept thinking oh will it be bad for me / get a dependency, should I just tackle this naturally first... so that helped a lot! Thanks, I immediately subscribed to your channel ❤️
This is so helpful! I just barely found out that I have PCOS, like today actually, and it's really helpful to know all of this! It gives me hope in being able to heal myself and work around PCOS.
I didn’t know one could have PCOS without cysts on the ovaries. Thanks! This video is very informative 😊❤️❤️
Thanks for posting this wonderful video! I learned a lot of new things watching this. I cant wait to share this video with my online pcos support group!😊😊
26, trying to get pregnant and only now have I discovered that I have PCOS. So strange, three months ago everything seemed to be ok, my period used to be quite balanced, and out of the blue here we are, extreme mood swings, getting emotional over anything, not having my period, and also feeling constantly nauseous. Thinking I was pregnant just to find out it's PCOS. Ugh... Thank you so much for the information, though! It really helps those of us who know nothing and don't really know what to do :)
Your dog is so cute ❤ thank you for the knowledge, much appreciated ❤❤😊😊
So I was diagnosed with PCOS earlier this week- I’m 19 and gained over 30 lbs over my first year at college and my period haven’t been regular in months. So when I went to my OBGYN (who I trust with my life) he immediately did all the tests and came back positive for high levels of androgen and insulin resistance. My Dr. said that he recommends 3 ways of helping PCOS 1) A low dosage of birth control to help reset my cycle
2) Metformin a medicine to help my insulin resistance and blood sugar levels
3) a low carb and sugar diet as I can’t sustain a keto diet at school
I’ve hear horror stories of PCOS women using birth control, so I want to hear from both sides of the spectrum? Why do some love it vs hate it?
I’m young and the only one in my family with this problem. I’m obviously terrified but excited for a change in my health and happiness!
Gianna Casale I used to take birth control and metformin and it worked for me especially with weight loss. But birth control can cause an increased of appetite. However, the metformin should tackle that increased appetite. I say try it and if you don’t like birth control or metformin side effects then talk to your doctor about it.
I’ve had pcos since I was 13 btw rn I’m 19
Thank you so much for this video I was just diagnosed with PCOS yesterday! It sounds so scary but this video help explain it a lot more to me!
Love this, I'm so glad I found your profile. Thank you for sharing!
WOW, This was really helpful, All this 10 things is what is happening to me right now and I didn't know that some things it was because of my PCOs
Thank you for saying that sometimes medical intervention is needed!! It’s the only thing that’s been helping me ❤️
What resources do you use to research? I like doing my own because it helps me understand it better 😊
Absolutely loved this! So blessed to have found this youtube channel.💚
THANK YOU for mentioning #1. I dont have cysts luckily but have EVERY syptom there is, male pattern hairloss, excessive body hair growth, heavy acne, irregular periods, weight gain that wont go away even after trying a LOT of diets etc. So i got the diagnosis. But I felt like I was a "fake" pcos patient cause I didn't have cysts even though I have more symptoms then others and got my diagnosis.
Your dog is so cute ! Thank you for this video. I did'nt know before that we have to eat fats every single meals. I also did'nt know that my difficulty to sleep is due to PCOS... Thank you again ! I am french so, it is not always easy to understand for me but your videos are very helpful ! I will continue to follow you !
Please post soon! I love your videos
Can you please say me how to get rid of hairfall in case of PCOD?? I am also a PCOD patient and I am suffering from chronic hairloss
First and foremost, balancing hormones will help hairloss. The only things that helped me is rosemary oil! I made a video about how I use it❤️🙏
I started taking myo Inositol 2x daily, and it has helped SO MUCH with my hairloss and regulating my cycle.
Thank you for your advice, I will be showing this video to my daughter. God bless you1
I have been seeing a fertility specialist for about 6 months and get regular ultrasounds. I always have 10+ follicles on each follicle. The nurse explained that this means my hormones are being spread really thinly over the high amount of follicles I have. Does anyone have this high number of follicles? If you follow a low carb diet, did your ultrasound results change and did you see less follicles each month?
Thanks for making such an informative video.
I was diagnosed infertile at 19, told was never gonna have kids never had a regular period, pretty much checked off all the symptoms of PCOS BUT last 2 months we celebrated my daughters first birthday conceived naturally with herbs remedies
Omg this is so helpful. Your videos have helped me so much!!!!
I'm here Bec I couldn't sleep and having PCOS has me surfing TH-cam watching random video's on it. I found this video so helpful!
i hope your doing well. I really miss your videos. WHat ever your doing or where ever you are God bless you .
I have had pcod since 3 years and I myself am fresh out of medical school. I have been having difficulty in sleeping when under stress of any sort. And now I understand why.But till date no one , or no standard book correlated the sleep disturbances to PCOS, which is surprising.
Metformin helped me loose weight. Dropped 20kg. Was a great kick start. That and also healthy eating and regular exercise
How long did it take you? and what foods did you stop eating? thanks
How are you now?
Thanks as always for these amazing videos. Your super informative videos really changed my life and helped me to know more about my body and my PCOS conditions. Stay blessed and happy always.
I was diagnosed with PCOS with insulin resistant but have no period issues. I have most of the other symptoms though.
Binge eating, mood swings and sleep is my biggest thing with PCOS. I’ve tried diets and exercise nothing seems to work. It comes off but goes straight back on and I can’t seem to loose more then 3to4kgs
This video is really helpful. Thanks for making it!!
P.s. your dog's a darling btw 💜
Thank you for this video, very informative overall
Did u have chin hair when u were diagnose with pcos ?
Just got diagnosed with this . ! Good info to know
I’ve been unable to make my own family and husband understand why I get so moody and depressed all of a sudden. I mean I’m 28 and married, so obviously not throwing a tantrum! Wish I knew they understood. Sometimes I feel so lonely and angry at myself.
I need help in something, my gynecologist wrote down LIGHT polycystic ovarian cyst syndrome, what does the light thing mean? ....
There are grades to pcos depending on how many symptoms you have
mild- 1-2 symptoms
Moderate- 2-3(4 ) symptoms
Major- almost all the symptoms
I have a partner with pcos, so being a guy I try to know more about it my partner had mood swings but not as bad now and I think she calmed down alot but is it true with pcos you only have 3 or 4 periods in 12 months as I know she sometimes has period symptoms with out the bleed but the next month could be a long bleed
thank you so much!! I hope I knew this before too
Hi, I didn’t knew that my problem with sleep has to do with pcos. I always have the problem to sleep at night & it takes almost 2 hrs for me to get asleep , now I knew it . Thanks for sharing 😊
I’m here for the amazing content and the frenchie cuteness and snorts!!!
Ive had it for 9 yrs and didnt know about some of the things u mentioned my doctors pretty much diagnosed me n told me to diet n exercise n then left me on my own how lovely x
I have been told by multiple doctors to lose 5-10% to help my cycles.... Like that totally worked. 😒 *sarcasm*
My obgyn said I had obesity "caused" PCOS... Hmmmm. Ignoring all the other problems such as I was a NORMAL weight until about puberty, and my noticable symptoms started when I was in an extremely stressed time (moved provinces, was in a horrible job, started school and injured my good knee within a year)- oh and before my blood tests which showed insulin resistance which can cause obesity.
He also diagnosed me with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease without a ultrasound and just based on liver enzymes.
Lo and behold, my gallbladder was removed this year and everything came back NORMAL afterwards. Including C-reaactive protein which is a inflammation measure. And he was supposed to be an "expert" in PCOS. I was pissed.
Thank you so much! I had no idea the binge eating and sleeping was part of pcos!
I'm so happy I found this channel ❤
This list is so helpful. You asked what I didn’t know ? Can I say everything on this list . I feel like I’m all alone in dealing with this nobody is giving me the help i need. Only thing my doctor says is lose weight or lose more weight or some other variation of that , join weight watchers, join slimming world join whatever other weight loss group out there .
How are you doing now ?
PCOS sucks man. Found out when I was 15, hormone therapy and the pill turned out to have a terrible reaction with me, and I already eat healthy and I'm at a healthy, if a little low, weight. My worst symptom is just THE PAIN (I also have an abnormally large amount of cysts on both sides, and uteran scarring due to hormone therapy). My abdomen feels like it's being torn to shreds and no amount of doctor-prescribed medication helps. Any of you PCOS girls know a way to deal with it?
I am a girl and i became 18 this month. I have gotten thick hairs on my boobs, chin and butt when i was 16. I also have gotten bad acne on my chin and cheeks out of the blue when i was 16. And also when i was 16 my hair start falling out. Im save to say that i have lost half of my hair.. i also have noticable love handles, and is it really hard to stay on one weight for me. i had my hormones tested but they were Stable. I went to the gynecologist en did a echo (a outside echo, not a inside one) and the gynecologist couldnt see anything incorrect. When i search my symptons up all i see is ‘pcos’ but my doctor said that thats not possible because i still get my periode often. And also because the gynecologist couldnt find anything. Does anybody think that i have still PCOS? Because my doctor doesnt take me serious she didnt help me at all. What could i do next? What should i ask my doctor for? I hope someone anwsers, im really sad about al these symptons.. (sorry for my english it isnt my first language)
I realy like all the 10 points and its amazing thanks quen
Hi, if you're new to the club, welcome!! Here are few thing you need to do immediately :-
1:- throw away the pills your gynic gave you. They are absolutely worse. If your PCOS is in the beginning stage you CAN control alot of symptom. I didn't know this but my facial hair growth was actually boosted by my pills.
2:- pill bleeds are not periods (louder for the people at the back). You are physically taking this hormone for outside which will give you depression eventually, forcing your body to bleed, and this is not period.
3:- cranberries, papaya, pineapple, walnuts, spearmint tea, flax seeds, chia seeds , absolute dark chocolate - your new best friends. Eat these every day (except for the fruits, you can alternate them). These foods naturally are good for estrogen production or help with pcos.
4:- diary, sugar, gluten. What do these all have in common? A big NO. These really mess with the insulin in your body. And girl diabeties is the last thing you want rn.
5:- hair fall, facial hair and back pain- high testrostron levels. Fatiuge-some thing to do with thyroid. Please speak to your gynic about this, get your thyroid checked.
6:- yoga = win win. Why? simple, it's easy, works effectively and you can do it on your bed!! How cool is that.
When ever I want my period I just eat a lot of mangoes, cranberries, papaya and pineapple. I also do abdominal yoga. It really help. This is what I've learnt from listening to my body. So get a pair of ear phones and listen to yours to. It's not that hard, you will become better and happier eventually. Oh also I eat a lot of carbs to get my period. I don't know why this works but it works (at least for me). In case of you ever feel lonely feel free to hit me on ig @survive_highschool_with_me. I might make this into a pcod related page but IDK.
Please do I just diagnosed last week and I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing
Ive serious acne issues. My pores keep opening even after following the routine given dermatologist and even taking hormonal therapy. What should I do? Could ya help.
About sleep too. No wonder im always late for work! And some other points u mentioned rly helped!
Ive been researching more about pcos recently after over a year of being diagnosed and im in awe in what i did not know about myself..
Hope this isn't too nosy,but have you ever taken provera for your menstrual cycle? I did start taking birth control but it wreaked my stomach...my periods are super intense..Wondering what your experience is.
I have PCOS, I have no cysts, I’m not infertile, I have no acne, but I do have unwanted hair ☹️ and and I am losing hair, I have oily skin, I get agitated quickly...I just need to figure out the best diet for me. I had no idea binge eating was a problem also because I really struggle with that one!
Hi lovely ,
Do you have any tips for skin discoloration due to pcos ?my neck is discolored and i am not overweight or diabetic or pre diabetic .I am doing exercise , eating well but still
Before i knew i had pcos i used to binge eating. I found out saturday😞. I am so happy i found your channel.
What are your thoughts on birth control to help with pcos?
Karen Ramos I’m a 16 year old with PCOS and taking birth control felt odd for me but I’ve honestly been seeing positive changes with it vs without it! My periods are now regular and I’m no longer depressed :)
@@melodyrubi6700 my doctor never recommendated any for me. I found out from my friends that i can use it. I think i will go to a next doctor to recommend one for me. Thanks for your reply.😊
Karen Ramos Not a problem ☺️
Hi love!! I wouldn’t take birth control to help PCOS (personally) but I have taken birth control as a contraceptive before ❤️🙏
@@YourNutritionCure My Dr has only ever given me that,and Spiro.Shockingly I had My period last week for a FULL SIX days.Its usually 2-3.I really dont want to take the pill anymore,and stay with the Spiro.See My Endo tomorrow.I ALSO have a non-cancerous 'tumor' on My Pituitary.
Thankyou for this videos. I didn't know that part of a PCOS person is hardly falling asleep, that's why I wonder why I hardly fall asleep at night even if I'm tired. thanks for the info's. 😊
Hiya I have an eating disorder for binge and purging how can I stop this and will this make my pcos worse if you could reply I would really appreciate this xxx
Can i ask what your hormones were like when you tested them? Did you have high testosterone and fasting glucose levels?
Yes, and yes. I know you were asking her, but I recently got diagnosed with PCOS after doing an extensive hormone blood panel. My testosterone levels are about double the normal level, and my A1C levels were pretty high too. Not diabetic levels yet. But basically with PCOS sugar levels are higher than most. So it is important to eat less carbs, more protein, more fiber, and like you are on a "diabetic diet." I am meeting with a dietitian to go over a health plan for me. It's a long road... but we have to do it. Hope that helped your question a little. 😊
Hey, do you think the pill helps with pcos? My gyno prescribed it to me recently so I’m curious, you are well informed😘
Adna Alibasic Karen Ramos I’m a 16 year old with PCOS and the concept of taking birth control felt odd for me at first but I’ve honestly been seeing positive changes with it vs without it! My periods are now regular and I’m no longer depressed :)
Melody R. Terron glad to hear that it has worked for you🤗 thank you😀
Adna Alibasic Not a problem☺️
NO, it actually isn't. Know that it's NOT FIXING YOUR BODY (back then I thought they were, go figure). It LOOKS like pills are helping you (hair is great, boobs are awesome, skin is beautiful), BUT you're NOT tackling the imbalance from the inside (I actually got cysts in my boobs, 4 of them, and horrible digestive problems). It's like drying the floor with the water open, you can keep drying as much as you like, it's never going to dry unless you close the water flow. So: no more contraceptive pills! I hate gynos who prescribe this crap automatically. Do remove processed foods and sugary stuff, reduce carbs (avoid refined, eat wholegrain), eat organic as much as possible, totaly remove junk food, drink plenty of water (2 liters per day), REMOVE SOY and DAIRY PRODUCTS (they imbalance your hormones even more), exercise (your body was made to move, so workout everyday, go for walks, dance, you name it, but move it - it's preferable to have more strength exercises than cardio coz cardio gets your hormones out of wack even more), do practice meditation to decrease your mood swings, spend time in nature to recharge (it's healthy and good for the soul). If you want to take supplements, go ahead but pills to sleep I think it's wrong too... In case you may have trouble sleeping, again, it's a consequence of the imbalance, so meditation and breathing exercises are pure gold. YOU NEED TO BALANCE AND WIND DOWN YOUR BODY. I'm not against doctors at all, but we need to be more conscious and pay attention to what happens to us and what the body is telling you. This addiction to pills in the Western world is pathetic and GENERALLY SPEAKING (I said, generally speaking, if you must take pills for serious illnesses, of course, go ahead) it just translates into lazyness and people not willing to listen to their bodies which are in pain-it's easier to just take a pill and fix all but not go to the SOURCE CAUSING THE PAIN. Pay attention to how you feel and what makes you feel wrong, whatever you eat, whatever you do, whoever you hang out with. Treat your body right and love it, remove toxicity in every form (food, environments, people, activities). AND, if you treat your body right, it will be healthy again and you'll be able to conceive without forcing anything. If you can't conceive, it's because there's something wrong and _THAT_ needs to be tackled, not forcing your body to conceive by being bombarded with other hormones. The sooner you start actually taking care of yourself, the better. If you don't believe me, fair enough, the best you can do is: STUDY PCOS, read as many books and research papers as you can, think, there's a lot of information out there and learn from your mistakes and share it with the rest of us. - Signed: Someone who's been diagnosed with PCOS 12 years ago, put on different pills, with horrible side effects in the long term like cysts in my breasts, horrible digestion problems, my gyno made a lot of mistakes and I had to learn from them. Study it for yourself so when you meet with your practioners you are PREPARED to talk about PCOS and find out if they're the right fit for you. One book I highly recommend reading is 8 STEPS TO REVERSE PCOS by Dr. Fiona McCulloch, I wish she had published it sooner. - Much Love, I hope this makes you think so you can find out for yourself! all the best ;-) Do use the medication app Calm, it has helped me a lot, even the masterclasses they have on nutrition, depression, happiness and more. One of the best investments I've ever made!
@@saraelisa8938 Soy is fine. Unless you have a sensitivity, whole food soy (soy milk, tofu, miso, etc.) Can actually be helpful.
Avoiding soy protein isolate is recommended.
is it not a normal thing to get your insulin checked every year? my pediatrician and now gp has always done it (i'm 19) as part of yearly blood work.
I get it checked twice a year.
The link for the Free PCOS Exercise Plan doesn't work :( ...but thank you so much for this information!
