Ok I am going to my doctor in a few weeks to see if I have PCOS. I was just wondering if it is very likely that I have the disease.
I'm 17 and my periods haven't ever really been regular and sometimes I'll miss 3 or 4 in a row. My last period was about 8 weeks ago.
I am over weight, but I am not obese. I watch what I eat and I exercise a lot, but I gain weight each year. Two years ago I became obsessive with my weight and lost 15 pounds in 4 months. A week after I lost it, I didn't gain or lose for about two weeks, then gained it all back very fast.
I am also flat chested. I'm not sure this is a common symptom, but my mom says it is. I wear an a cup and sometimes that is too big for me. My b***s never fully formed either, they are still kinda pointy and not round. They haven't grown since middle school.
I don't know if I have more facial hair than most women because I dont know what's common, but I pluck my upper lip hairs every week or every other week, but they aren't really noticeable if I forget to pluck them. But I always have some hair on my stomach that i shave once, or twice a week. and sometimes I shave my back hair (like once a month). But then again, I don't know if I have more hair than other women, I may just be a freak who loves to not have hair on my body.
I get acne on my face all the time and I never used to about 2 years ago.
My cousin was diagnosed with the illness a few years ago.
Sorry if this is so long. I know none of you are doctors, but I was just wondering about a rough guess about what the chances were that I had the disease. Please be honest if you answer.
