Question: Hi i have a couple of questions
1.i have hit a surge of instant weight gain
2 i have not had my periods begin on time and took sysron but still nothing has helped.
3 i tend to get dizzy when i have carbs and sugar , its like a feeling of high blood pressure as my ears just get blocked .
4 too bloated, plus when i pass stool its been hurting and mostly the form of stool is solid despite eating lots of greens and having water.
i was told by my gynaecologist that with pcos i could also be prone to diabetes , i was wondering if you could lay down the symptoms of diabetes and hypothyrodism too.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX XXXX,
Thanks for the query . I have read & understood your concern,& would try your queries to satisfy you.
1. Sudden spur of weight gain- can be due to-
- Sedentary life style with over eating with excess sleep & lack of exercises.
- PCOD when obesity is associated with irregular periods because of hormonal imbalance, This can be due to insulin resistance , so possibility of diabetes also exits with this condition.
Diabetes- Characterized by Increased hunger, thrust & urination /weight gain or loss/ fatigue/ blurred vision, skin infections/ wounds healing slowly.
- Hypothyroidism - characterized by weight gain, difficult to reduce/fatigue, lack of energy/dry skin, hairs & nails/ itchy scalp/joint , muscle pain/ head ache/ depression.along with irregular periods.
2. Irregular periods are due to hormonal imbalance, You had taken Sysron pills without any withdrawal- this indicates low estrogen level. Your gynecologist would change the medicines/ get you more investigated to arrive to exact diagnosis & the would put you on specific medication along with the basic cause ( hypothyroidism, PCOD, ovarian problem )
3. To get dizziness after carbohydrates can be blood being rushed to stomach for digesting food while brain gets less blood supply/ fear of having diabetes creating psychological stress.
4.Hurting while passing motion can be bowel infection/ constipation with anal fissure. Bloating of abdomen you have indicates either infection/ over eating/ sluggish bowels .. which can be due to Diabetes or hypothyroidism.
I hope you are satisfied with the answer, Any follow up query is welcome
I request for grading the answer, if you find it useful.. before you close the query.
