Ok Ladies I need a little info on PCOS again havent had a chance to make a doctors appointment yet going to try for next week hopefully but does anyone with PCOS out there know if having irregular af's is must have symptom to have to be diagnosed with it? My mum has it and I have been tested before as I said before back when I was 17 and had scan etc then and came back normal but I had a slightly higher testosterone level then and have noticed lately that the hair on my chin/ neck is gross like my mum gets becaucse of her PCOS hope I havent confunsed anyone plus the whole over weight thing also
TTC since October 2009 Diagnosed with PCOS June 2010
I always had regular periods and was only diagnosed with PCOS because of pain. I was sent for a scan and it turns out that I actually have PCOS.
Even though I was having regular periods I was only ovulating every second cycle as one ovary was really bad.
In saying that I managed to conceive 1st month trying with #1 and second month with #2. I think most of that was to do with the fact that I was charting with #1 so knew what was going one.
My periods became really erratic after #1 and are still like that now so there is a chance that you will develop irregular periods at some point.
Re: the weight loss thing - it is super hard to lose weight with PCOS but I recommend the book PCOS Diet book (Collette Harris) as a good starting point.
Any questions feel free to ask.
