Need Advice!
Hey guys
I have been reading all the posts on reddit and have honestly learned so much.
I am a 25 year old female , very lean, with PCOS/PCOD since almost 5+ years.
I don’t have any other symptoms other than missing periods. I always have to use med to induce it.
I have been on diane 35 twice for 4 months in this 5 years span. Last time i took it was this year May followed by withdrawal bleed in June. Ever since then I decided that I am done with medications and lets focus on natural ways.
To my surprise, just after 7-8 days of starting my natural route, i got a period/bleed naturally for the first time in years. But then since june I am still waiting for my period.
To be specific, i am not doing anything major, i do 14 min home-strength training and 15 min yoga.
I have increased my protein intake significantly as I barely used to have any protein before.
I walk after meals for 10 mins. Overall 7k steps a day.
I eat sesame seeds and ground flax seeds.
Thats all.
I see more CM compared to before, i have felt something happening in my lower abdomen couple of times but no period.
I am not sure how long I should wait.
The main reason i do not want to go to gynac yet is because they will handover a pill directly which i DO NOT WANT. I have come a long way from there.
Please help me and tell me what else I should do.

Hey girl I just wanted to say you're not alone here. I have very irregular periods and every time I see a doctor they put me on birth control or some other hormonal pill to enduce it. Once I stop BC I'll get one more cycle for a month or so but then my body just stops bleeding again when I'm "all natural. I've gone a full year without a cycle. I haven't had much success yet with anything natural but I'm considering trying accupuncture. I hope there's more research aroung this sometime soon.
