Can someone explain cortisol and its effects concerning pcosFrom: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 24 Feb 2003 17:06:45 -0600 (CST)
Dear friends, My daughter is 18 and you ladies have helped us so much. In brief, my daughter is 18, had high cholesterol, high triglycerides, acne, fatigue, and insulin resistance - that was last summer. Now, with glucophage, exercising 15 hours a week, and Yasmin a lot of positive changes have taken place. The cholesterol has been lowered by 50 points, her complexion is beautiful, has energy, and has gotten through the worst of glucophage and its side effects. Now, she has completed a 24 hour cortisol test - this takes atleast a week for the results of the test to be read. If the cortisol level is high - what does that mean and how is this treated different than what she is already doing? She has not been able to loose weight. She is going to a reproductive endocrinologist. Thanks
