[quote=Anonymous]I am TTC and “lean” PCOS — i.e. normal weight. I am trying to learn more about how to manage my PCOS while TTC but everything I read seems to revolve around losing weight and fixing insulin resistance. I have known I’m PCOS since age 18 when I didn’t get my period for over a year. I treated it by taking birth control. I was put on metformin for a bit but didn’t do anything for me. Aside from a a few years after gaining the freshman 15, I’ve always been average weight (currently 135 lbs and 5’5”) and no evidence of insulin resistance. I’ve been off of BC for 18 months now but still don’t get my period without medication (been taking Letrozole for a few cycles so getting it now). AMH of 14 which apparently is more evidence of PCOS. I also have some acne but otherwise not many symptoms. Does anyone have good resources for how to manage PCOS when weight and insulin resistance is not the issue? Is there anything else to do aside from medicated cycles?[/quote]
