I have it....hairy, fat, oily skin leading to breakouts, amenorrhea. My cousin has it too...Doctors I saw were twits. The doctor I saw at 37 made me hate doctors more. I refused to see ANY doctor for nine years when forced to because of Zika infection (46). Fast forward to 50 I'm now diabetic, but did lose 100lbs over 4 years, my ovary spawned a monster cyst I didn't know about. TAH BSO later pathology found endometrial cancer in a polyp. I'm on estrogen replacement. I still get zits, fat, and my hair grows quick.....
I haven’t had a period for 2 years, my doctor thought it’s PCOS and we didi find a small cyst but when we had blood work done, everything was normal i.e FSH & LH but cholesterol, sugar etc. we’re high. She gave me some hormones and a syrup (later mentioned)and said if I don’t get my period in a month, schedule another appointment asap for another scan. I still haven’t gotten my period. My mother told a friend of hers and she said if a take syrups like evecare etc. (India based products) for 3-4 months there’s no need to go again. Which advice do I follow??
Hi Dr. Ali! Do you think it's a myth that contraceptives dissolve cysts in the ovaries and only help improve symptoms or do contraceptives actually help much more than just symptoms?
Is there anything I can take for the hair growth? So embarrassing as a women should I just go for a hysterectomy would that help at all? I am at a loss I am 35 and done having babies :)
What about high prolactin levels? How is this connected?
Thanks for posting. I have PCOS and I learned a lot tonight.
I'M about to be 47 and have PCOS! MY DREAM OF MOTHERHOOD IS STILL MY DREAM. THIS IS THE BEST PCOS EXPLANATION! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
