Hey! If any of y’all are on metformin for pcos like I am- or can damage the intrinsic factor in your gut and make you not process b-12 correctly which can lead to major major fatigue. I reccomend trying out b-12 supplements they helped me a lot :) I’m still tired but not like having to sleep every 30 min like I used to be

yeah I have diagnosed insomnia and I tried to tell doctors and they said oh that's why but finally a doctor looked into it and connected it to everything else and told me it was PCOS. I was 17 it took that long and the doctor was like another doctor really should've seen this.

Yeah, it doesn’t matter how long I sleep, I’m always tired. I started taking vitamin d supplements and those helped a bit, but still just always tired

Always! Doesn't matter how much sleep I get, I'm still exhausted! There's no amount of caffeine or B Vitamins to keep this girl awake! 😴

Yes! Everytime I have a blood test I'm low in vitamin D. Sometime iron but I've been trying to take multivitamins everyday so let's see if they help in anyway

Yes. At this point, the only reason I'm awake is because I took a nap earlier and because of caffeine
