PCOS, Hello Old Friend
I just had a 50 ish day cycle without any drugs. I'm pretty sure I even ovulated twice. Oh the miracles of not cycling for almost 2 years. My best cycles were 40 some days on Metformin. I don't expect this to last though. Although I haven't been eating perfectly, it hasn't been awful yet my cholesterol is the highest it's ever been (and my good cholesterol the lowest.) My triglycerides are high, my blood pressure is still not normal, and my testosterone is climbing. I expect to say hello to my good friend Met again sometime this year. It's not for the fact that we want to make more babies. It's for the fact that I want to be healthy. I hate the highs and lows, the crazy blood values and the shitty side effects of unchecked PCOS.

oooh girl, I hear you. I just started progesterone because of how nutty things have been. I feel better but know it's artificial and that kind of makes me sad and pissed off simultaneously.
That sucks. I hope you get it under control again soon.
Sorry luv.
