Question Skin Tags Drying Up ????

I was wondering if anyone is experiencing skintags that are drying up and coming off...I have been on Atkins for 3 weeks and I have had 2 skin tags dry up and come off the past 2 days(1 each day)...I was wondering if anyone else experienced this after low carbing for a while or if this is all just a fluke...I am hoping they will all dry up and go away and the facial hair and body hair will get thinner...I am sick of bleaching...Thanks in Advance

Okay, now I feel like I'm following you around the PCOS forum-- ha ha! Yes, I had this same experience. I've lost 3 and others have gotten smaller. I've been low carbing for about 2 months and have lost 26 lbs. I eat 25-50 carbs a day. I'm also on glucophage (just ending my 3rd week on it). Anyway, I wondered if I was the only one to experience the loss of these horrible skin tags, but I guess not!

Jennd it is fine if you follow me aroung especially when I see that I am not the only one haveing these results...This is one great result...I hate these things...I just have 1 under my arm that I wish would vanish because I feel like it gets irritated everytime I shave..Ugh...so agravating...I am also hoping that this lovely(sacasm) dark mark on my neck will go away...its not really bad but it bothers me...Good luck to us all in losing all of the bad symtoms that we have encountered with PCOS...Thanks for the responces
