Hi Mel,
Sorry to hear about your diagnosis but at least you know what is going on
with you. A Paleo diet low in carbs is actually about the only natural
treatment for PCOS.  Some woman have had their periods restored to some
regularity after following a paleo/low carb diet. Paleo reduces the insulin
resistance thought by some researchers to be part of the the cause of PCOS.
If you want to know more about PCOS contact me off forum as it's not
entirely on topic.
