Struggling with PCOS: Lack of Motivation and Follow Through

I know your fears about pregnancy. I'm currently at the point where my only treatment option left is a hysterectomy and whilst I know I have very slim chances of getting pregnant anyway especially with the damage I've had from previous treatments and from miscarrying. I do worry that keeping my ovary for the option of children down the line is going to end abruptly with the fertility issues. I'd only have 1 ovary post op and because of the conditions I have significantly fewer eggs that are viable overall and I would only have the ovary with fewer eggs remaining because for me fewer eggs means fewer cysts, which makes my chances slimmer still of success which does make me nervous. I really hope you are able to have the family you want to have. And I really do wish you luck with your conditions. If you want to talk, feel free to message me.

I have PCOS and would love to know more about getting healthy and coping with it. I have excess hair growth but at the same time the hair I want thinned out because of hypothyroidism. I gain weight just looking at a crumb of bread. But I also went through like a year of starvation and rapidly losing weight because I just lost my appetite and food became scary. I'm also scared about the possible future want for a child because the way my PCOS is, I don't have a period at all unless I'm on birth control. I currently have an IUD that will last me about 7 and a half more years because I'm only 22. So when I'm 30, and it comes out, do I just replace it because I need the hormones, or do I switch back to pills. I worry I won't be able to get pregnant at all and that if I do it's likely to go wrong.

I mean, my family has a strong work ethic. But I've found lists work What's two easy things I can do today and one harder one? Accountability buddies help too But also make weekly lists of all you've accomplished so far

I have been going through the same thing but I had to make a huge change for health reasons as I was diagnosed with Diabetes, Lactose intolerant and Guten intolerant.

I have had pcos for a long time. I was diagnosed in south africa but i have moved to england been here for 2 years now and have not been able to find a gynaecologist. Who specialises in pcos related

Weightloss wise, that isn't motivating for me because it's so hard with the condition so I call exercise "movement" and tell myself the aim is to improve my endurance, not to lose weight. Because I notice my endurance gets way more results which is motivating enough to keep at it.

I'm in a similar boat. I'm working with my doctor to make a menstrual cycle and make me actually ovulate, I take a bunch of pills, I want to lose weight to help all of it, but motivation is hard. At least with the weight loss part, I'm trying to find ways to exercise that are more fun so that I can want to do them. Sadly, that's all the advice I have... because I'm in the same boat TTC
