A member asked:

Pcos with acne, seldom menses, hirutism and subhigh bloodsugar levels.normal weight(bmi23/24 but )will it help me to eat healthy and loose weight?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pcos: Pcos can lead to diabetes. Eating healthy will help; however, seeing a gynecologist for menstral irregularity and hirsutism is important. Birth control pills can help acne, menstral issues and hirsutism. Sometimes oral hypoglycemic meds are necessary as well.
