Sarah.. I have PCOS and was banded in May. I have lost almost 50 pounds and it has done amazing things for my PCOS. I have had 2 periods naturally so far..... the best I did before was maybe 2 a year!

Good luck!

I have PCOS, still battle daily with the hair, but have a perfect 28 day cycle, have no cysts, acne, hormones are normal, and the mood swings, (apart from PMS) are gone!

Wow

That is so great to hear. That is the one of the main reasons my Endocrinologist is wanting me to get banded. I hope that my cysts and infertility are taken out by the band.
