How can i lose weight with pcos?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nutrition & exercise: No easy answer. Women w/PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) lose weight same way everyone else does: eat healthy foods & exercise regularly. Of course, see your Family Doc to make sure you don't also have hypothyroidism or some other condition. Metformin, used to treat diabetes, is often prescribed to those w/PCOS. Because it can upset your stomach, some people lose weight while taking metformin.
