PCOS in pregnancy

I'm currently expecting my first child, and I've been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). While I'm thrilled about the pregnancy, I can't help but feel anxious about how my condition might affect the baby's health. I've done some research, and it seems like there can be potential risks associated with PCOS during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes, preterm birth, preeclampsia, and even autism???? I'm also concerned about the possibility of passing on any genetic factors related to PCOS to my baby. anyone has similar experience?

my gynae said I have PCOS too when I was pregnant. but I didn't have all the problems that you mentioned. my kid is 1 year+ now and healthy. don't worry too much, have a balanced diet and stay positive throughout this journey!
