Don't be scared -- it CAN be beaten back. My IR's gone dormant/away whatever.
Some PCOS patients have IR and some do not. There's at least 5 types of patients:
- traditional PCOS -- anovulatory, increased androgens, no insulin resistance
- endocrine syndrome X -- anovulatory, increased androgens, insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes
- non-traditional PCOS --anovulatory, normal androgens, obese, insulin resistant or type 2 diabetes
- non-traditional PCOS -- ovulatory, increased androgens, mild insulin resistance
- idiopathic hirsutism -- ovulatory, increased androgens, no insulin resistance
You are not alone!
