Hi everyone.
I was diagnosed with PCOS about fifteen years ago when I was 13 years old. I have done hardly anything about it, I have gone to consultants once or twice who have prescribed me metphormin but I have never taken it regularly. I get really bad face and body hair and I weigh nearly 19 stone.
I have decided that this year I am going to face it once and for all but I am really scared. I feel really nervous talking and thinking about it and I am petrified of going to the Doctors.
Please could anyone offer some advice on how I best I can start sorting this out?
I also aim to lose weight so any advice on PCOS friendly diets would be really gratefully received...
