Question:

PCOS or something else???

Now, I went to the doctor because I was having irregular periods. I was bleeding one week and not the next for about 2 months. So, they did a hormone level check. My LH was 5.3 and my FSH was 18.6. I guess the 18.6 is post-menopausal. I am only 17. I had my son 10 months ago. I am not having problems with facial hair, I am not obses, my hair is not falling out, nothing in the "risk catagory" fits me at all.

The doctor thinks I have PCOS and I am getting an ultrasound tomorrow to find out. But, does this sound like PCOS or something completely different.

And if it is something different then, does anyone know what it could be?

Thank You!

  1. I just had a hormone level check last week.  My LH and FSH were kind of backwards of yours.  My FSH was low (which was good for the beginning of my cycle) but my LH was pretty high.  I was just diagnosed with pcos last month and really the hormone imbalance plus the irregular periods classified me as pcos.  Your hormones seem a little imbalanced.  Hopefully the ultrasound will show your doctor what they need to know/ or what they are specifically looking for (like cysts on ovaries, which can but not always be present in pcos... I have none).  The good news is that your doctor will know the best way to treat the imbalance.  Good Luck with your ultrasound and everything else!! :o)


  2. at least you have a baby but it dont sound like pcos to me I have it and I dont have stuff like that it could be somthing less

  3. PCOS is an easily treatable and yes what you have can be PCOS. When you have you pap and they stick thier fingers in you and push down do you feel ANY discomfort/pain? If yes that is an obvious sign of PCOS.

    Did they check your testosterone levels as well? Because your symptoms match mine and my testosterone is high and i have PCOS im on metformin...

    Good Luck

  4. i dont no what it could be and i have pcos and it doent sound like that at all? they say it is like imposable for me to have a baby bc of it and if you alrady have one i dont think that is what it is  .. i would search google to find out what it could be.
