Aunt Flo! How are you!? Where have you been?

Lucky me. One of my symptoms of PCOS is the lack of a menstrual cycle. Now I know what some of you may be thinking, "You're one lucky byotch!" Sure, sure I totally understand this! However, it also isn't the healthiest thing in the world to have no menstrual cycle, the way I do. Yes I have had them in the recent past, but only birth control pill induced. My last natural menses was the day of our wedding, yeah lucky me, and of course I only had it for that one day. I am now 20 days shy of making it 6 complete years with out a natural menses.

But today is also an amazing day. Today IS the first day since my wedding day that I HAVE HAD a natural menses! This makes me want to do flips and summersaults, well it would if I wasn't totally cramping right now. Being on metformin for one week with no change in weight except up and I was getting concerned that this wasn't the way for me. I am now beginning to think that it is only the beginning of something amazing to come.

Wish me luck! Today my faith has been renewed and I feel like that my goal is actually possible now. And here we go!
