for those that took drugs for it....did it make any difference to the symptoms???? did it stop the excessive hair growth?? stop the bad acne?? help with weight loss???
For me it got worse with each pregnancy. I have to use facial hair cream removal every 2 days. I am just waiting for the time that Andrew weans ( I am doing extended bf however) and then I am going for laser treatment.
There apparently is a drug for the hair but is very expensive and only marginally helps.
It sucks right? I am just really lucky that I have a man that loves me even though I am a grizzly hairy bear.
I've found nothing has worked for me... hair growth is worse than ever... used to get waxed 6 weekly but over the last year it has to be 3 weekly can sometimes stretch it to 4.... it sucks!!! I pluck the odd one if it has to be done on the inbetween weeks..

Ya gotta love them aye!
Oh yeah, I was talking to the lady who did my waxing last week and she was talking about a laser treatment that she's just started doing at her new clinic and said that it's worked great on the woman she's done it on who have PCOS... is a bit costly but she reckons I'd need 4 or 5 treatments and then would only have to pluck the odd hair every now and then compared to what I have to deal with now.... can't remember the name, will text her and find out! Am considering starting it in July when I have to go to that city frequently for dress fittings etc.
I have noticed that the hairs on my legs and arms are growing very fast now. I was waxing every 6 weeks, now I have to wax every 3-4 weeks but I am lazy over winter and will stretch it out to 6 weeks again. I too am lucky he doesn't mind about the hair.
I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
