Does pcos cause weight gain?

Beta, in our days we managed body weight by staying active and eating simple home-cooked meals with turmeric and methi water in the morning. PCOS does cause the body to store fat, especially around the belly. Along with your doctor's medicines, try to avoid processed foods completely.

I am eating so little and still gaining weight every single week, it is making me so stressed! Is anyone else also experiencing this crazy weight gain with PCOS? I feel like my body is completely out of my control and I don't know what to do.

I made the mistake of ignoring my sudden weight gain for two years, thinking it was just stress. By the time I finally went to a doctor, my PCOS had worsened and my insulin levels were sky-high. Please don't ignore these early body changes; get a professional medical opinion immediately.

Yes, it absolutely does, and it is mostly due to insulin resistance which makes your body store fat instead of burning it. Don't waste time on crash diets because they will mess up your hormones even more. Meet a proper endocrinologist and get a tailored treatment plan.

I totally panicked when I gained 8 kgs in just three months due to PCOS. But once my doctor explained the connection with insulin and we adjusted my lifestyle, the weight stabilized. It is a very common part of the condition, so don't lose hope, it can be managed.
