Hi everyone!

This is my second day on Phentermine. I also have PCOS. Is there anyone in the same boat I am? overweight because of PCOS and taking Phen? How is is working for you? I'm very interested in learning all I can from more experienced people. TIA!

Thanks SgtRocksBaby

I have been surfing this site all day... gaining lots of insight

PCOS is polycystic ovarian syndrome.

I have it, so does my sister who also uses phen.

I had a very hard time carrying children, then even getting pregnant because of the PCOS. I miscarried 3 children and tried to get pregnant after my first livebirth with no luck for 5 yrs. We finally gave up trying and I started focusing on weight loss. I cut the carbs and fat first, lost 40 lbs in a few months. Within that first few months my gallbladder went bad, when I came out of emergency surgery I was informed I was 15 weeks pregnant with my daugter who is now 2. I am now 150 lbs lighter and have no trouble whatsoever out of my PCOS - I am finally regular again (haven't been in 15 yrs), that has to do with the weight & PCOS equally. I am a blessed mother of 2 beautiful babies.

thats wonderful jwbluestang!! I really hope this helps me too

Is Phen just an appetite suppressant?

jwbluestang · July 14th, 2007, 07:15 PM

It is an amphetimine (sp??) so it speeds metabolism also, which is related to the increased heart rate. My doctor was trying to talk me out of Xenical, which is what I was asking for, and said "How can you beat a med that will make you burn more calories 24/7?? That's the real benefit of this med.". So I went with phentermine, my sister went with Xenical. Over the first 2 weeks, I lost 15 lbs, she gained 1. Needless to say she is on phen now too.
