Longtime Atkins Ladies w/PCOS or Insul. Issues Question??
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just a thought I'm throwing out here>>>>
I've been Atkinsing for years now and have lost 75 pounds. While I've never been diagnosed with PCOS or anything it has regulated my TOM. I was irregular for 25 years before this. As it turns out, I've developed a huge uterine fibroid which I'll be having a hysterectomy (yikes) within the next few weeks for. I'm only 39! However, not planning on any more kids. Uterine fibroids are hormonally related - I was wondering if any of you other ladies have developed the same after low carbing for a while. Atkins has definitely regulated my hormones which in turn I believe is feeding this fibroid. Any thoughts? Thanks........
