Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Community

Hi! When I was pregneant with my oldest I was just 20 years old and I got facial hair on my chin my neck and on the sides of my neck and occasionally I will get these long hairs on my face. I was told it would go away after he was born. Well it didn't. I have so much hair on my arms that guys I dated made fun of me. As I have gotten older it has gotten much worse. I was going to a doctor to lose weight because I gained 56 lbs from October 2011 to January 2012. I would lose about 13 lbs and then I would stop. I was diagnosed with PMDD in my late 20's. They gave me a new medicine for that in October in 2011 which I thought caused my weight gain. Well May 25, 2012 I was diagnosed with PCOS and hyprothyroidism. They put me on Metaformin and Sporlactone pluse a thyroid medicin. They are also running more tests. Right aroaund my period like 2 1/2 weeks before I will start craving sweets and I never did but I crave carbs and junk food and I never ever used to do that. I started the metaformin start out at 250 twic a day now I am at 250 in the morning and 500 in the afternoon or night and 50 mtg of the spirlactone. I just wonder when do you take the meaformin in the morning with breakfast but then within 30 mins I am craving sweets and sugar and then I fight it and I think I become hypglycemic and I was wondering how far apart do you take the spirlactone and when should I take my 2nd dose of metaformin with myy lunch or with my evening meal. He has me on a super low calorie diet. Plus I get moody with the PMDD. Also right around my period during my pms or pmdd I will eat and have trouble swallowing my food gets stuck and I have to drink water to push it down and if that doesn't work then I throw up I have to get the food unstuck. Could that be another hormone? I am going to talk to my doctor when I go back July 20th. I just feel so out of sync. When I started the 3 new drugs June 26th I lost 7 lbs and in 5 days and then all of the sudden i started craving craving craving I have figured out with my shrink that I have a major case of PMDD. Most PMDD patients PMS is 10 days to two weeks mine last 2 1/2 to 3 weeks and goes til about the 3rd day of my cycle. I don't have irregular periods nor do I have cysts on my ovaries I do have fibroids on my utuerus and my tests alwsays come back normal so all doctors have written this off until recently. I used to get boils on my face or acne which I now learned was a side effect but I don't get them anymore. I just have the hair and everywhere. My periods are heavy and every month I pass clots usually about the size of quarters several times a days sometimes larger but they say that's because I got my tubes tied in 2006. I didn't ovulate for 4 years and in 2005 I was told I couldn't get pregnant and then 3 months later I got pregnant but always had a normal cycle on occassion I would have 2 cycles a month about 3 or 4 times a year but they said that was my body adjusting to seasons. I am just curious if anyone still craves the sugar and do I just need to give it time I give in and will eat a cookie but then eat a piece of fruit or drink orange juice when my sugar gets low so any help yall could give me I would appreciate it. I am 38 years old I have horrible cramps but they said that is because I had my tubes tied. I am so moody and on an emotional roller coaster I have insecurities but they are intensified with the PMDD and I guess the PCOS and now I realize why I am single and never married I ruin the relationships with this PMDD and PCOS I am just at my whits ends and was wondering if I could get some feed back and if anyone is dealing or has dealth with this kind of stuff ....thank you in advance I am ashamed and embarrassed with all these problems
