I'm feeling a little down today, I've been trying to conceive for about nine months now, and my hospital appointment as come through today to see my consultant, I know I should be happy, but its made me think about my PCOS, and how unhappy it makes me, the hair, the weight, the spots, the moods... I'm also bulimic and have been for 10 years, and I've recently read that extreme dieting and bingeing can cause PCOS... I'm in a dog eat dog world, I've got PCOS... so to keep my weight down I do silly things like binge and starve myself... I just can't help wondering if I'm bulimic cause of my PCOS, or I have PCOS because of my bulimia, stupidness...just feeling a little sorry for myself today... does anyone else on here suffer from eating dissorders also?

:confused: Hello scaryfairy, I have been suffering from anorexia for at least 14 years. I havent been anorexic for all those years, but it had been numerous times that I have been starving myself for months or weeks, and defenatelly many times that I have been underwight. I was taking the bith control pill for 5 years and stopped it 7 months ago because I got married.. I got to tell you that I started taking the pill because of and unwanted pregnancy which resulted in an abortion 5 years ago. Now that i'm married and off the pill, i'm just been diagnosed with PCOS after having an ultrasound because I havent had my menstrual period since April. I don't know I have been under tremendous stress last 7 months, but the truth is that i've had an eating disorder.

hey, I was diganosed recently with PCOS and I have had anorexia a few years ago but have been working on it. Although eating disorders and PCOS could seem to be realted, it is my understanding that it is a genatic disorder. I have read some articles when I found out and this is what they tell me.
