Hi All:

I just joined the forum, and I am excited for the support and the chance to share my input as well. I am 23, on the BC pill and have PCOS. I have been getting worried by some posting that say that the BC pill will undermine all attempts to lose weight and relieve the PCOS symptoms that I am looking for with this WOE. Please help! I need good advice :)

Hi - I am a bit older than you (33), but I have PCOS and was put on the pill (Mircette) to relieve the PCOS symptoms. Since starting to low carb, I've lost 31 lbs. in a little over 6 months. The pill has not hindered my progress. I'm not perfect with the LC WOL and I've still had nice results.

Even though your mileage may vary, yes, it can work out great for you. Best of luck! And feel free to ask me anything in my journal...
