I was just wondering if anyone else seems to be hungry all the time. Im ne progesterone right now, so I'm trying to figure out if me feelign hungry (and I'm serious, the worst hunger I have ever felt...not just munchies or whatever) is the meds or PCOS. Anyone else get that hunger?

Well i have always had hunger issues i would say lol!!! i can't really pin point it to pcos or being on progesterone. I do know that being on it made me very sleepy!!! Did u have that side affect also???

YES!!! Me too. The worst hunger I have ever felt. It is so unnatural, and almost like no matter how much I eat, it will not never quench it. I am not on Progesterone though, only Met. I am not overweight, but I am insulin resistant, and it seems like I feel that way when I do not eat right on schedule, and my blood sugar gets a little low, and when I feel like that and I eat it jumps up. But, I never felt that feeling until I started Metformin.

Hi Ladies: Among the many things progesterone did to me, hunger was definitly one. Think of it as PMS on steroids. Just be careful, because as I learned from experience, PCOS tends to lessen your ability to lose weight. I did not know that back 20 yrs ago when I was first diagnosed. I gained about 10 pounds in about 2 months.
I'm not saying you shouldn't satisfy the hunger pangs, just try to do so with things that are lo-cal and can be metabolized quickly.
Good luck and hang in there. cmpgirl
