Just found out I have PCOS and I was doing a bit of research and everything that I hear is confusing.

First I heared about IR and thought I must have it but then I saw some people don't have it and now idk if that is because it just hasn't showed up yet but it will after PCOS gets worse because the hormone imbalances cause you to be IR or smth?

Then I am wondering about getting fat. Will this happen at some point or can it be avoided?

For reference I was diagnosed because I had high androstenedione and cysts on my ovaries. I have regular periods and I am very lean and in my 20s. No other symptoms that I am aware of.

I just find out I am insulin resistant and also have PCOS. I already exercise and plan on impoving my diet but I am wondering if even with these changes I am on my way to diabates but only delaying it? Will every person with IR develop diabates. I am in my 20s so I have a lot of life in front of me and it seems unlikely that it won't turn into diabates despite lifestyle changes from what I heard.

I also heard that having high insulin will make me fat. I am quite lean now but wondering what is my fate in the future.

I want to go vegan and I want to try seitan but when searching for recipies I only found how to make seitan and not actually what to make with it. Can you guys help me out what are your favourite recipies that use seitan as a main ingridient?
