  • Support Groups

    • Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

      i am no longer on some of theses pills like the birthc ontrol pills, i got off since it gave me pulmonary embolism and the spironolactone. I'm on Coumadin, Naproxen Sodium, and Ultram.

      Treatments

      Laparoscopic Surgery Working / Worked
      it worked well since my gallbladder is removed
      Oral Contraceptives Working / Worked
      It is helping me a little but it doesn't help with the acne or the facial and body hair. I'm taking something else for that.
    • Close Abstinence & Celibacy

      I am a 21 year old virgin. I plan on staying one for a while. Even though it can be hard, I try to stay busy and realize that I enjoy being single so I can focus on myself.

    • Open Pulmonary Embolism

      I am new. I'm 21 years old and I have PE and PCOS. I was diagnosed a month ago with PE. I haven't done research yet on this illness like I did with the other one. I am on Comadin for 6 months and I won't be going back to school until January.

      Treatments

      Coumadin Too Soon to Tell
      I had a clot in my leg that broke off and travel in to my chest and I ended up with multiple clots on both sides of my lungs. Im not sure if the stuff is woking.
    • Open Gallstones

      I recently had abdominable pain which turned out to be my gallbladder. It was inflammed and I had multiple stones. I had been through so much pain at the time, but now I'm better. I had gotten my gallbladder removed.

    • Open Obesity

      I am 21 turning 22 and I am obese. I am 275 lbs. I'm trying to lose the weight. Its hard especially when you have PCOS. I haven't tried any of the diets, but my doctor strongly recommends Weight Watchers. I can't afford it or any diet right now because I do not work. I just re - enrolled to go back to school. So dieting seems like a bad time for me right now. I'll just stick to exercising the hard way.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      I'm still working on losing my weight.
    • Open Female Sexual Issues

      it seems the longer my list of support groups, the more i have wrong with myself.
