Default Finally something that helped my daughter

After one week of this WOE my daughter, who hasn't had a period in a year, started her period today! I have been researching PCOS for about 6 months now and think finally we may have found something that, at least, helps her.

She started out at 12 with perfectly normal periods...then at 14....POOF...sudden weight gain, stretch marks, and no periods. I took her to the doctor and he put her on the magic "PILL". She had periods but felt awful...gained more weight etc. After a year of the "Pill" we decided it was not right for her and took her off. After she went off the pill, she had one period and then they were gone again.
It has been a year since she had any period at all. She started Atkins about a week ago and lost 4 pounds so far and today started her period! We are so happy that something seems to be helping.

I just thought this might be some encouragement to some that are struggling with this problem. I don't know what will happen from here, but we are greatly encouraged!
