Hmmmm
I have not been diagnosed as PCOS but here is my deal.
I started when I was 13. I have always been atleast a little overweight since I was like 5.
Anyway, my cycles have never been regular, but as I got older they became fewer and far between.
Because of me being wierd, and some things that happened when I started, I have been severely uptight about talking to anyone about this.
I am now 24 and had my first pap at the end of may.
I have maybe one cycle a year if I am lucky. I have these freaking witch hairs that pop up on my face from time to time. I think they spring to the surface at the most horrible time they can think of. My hair is thinning (to be fair, my mom has thin hair now and my dad well, lets just say he is hanging onto what he can).
My cycles, when I have them are wierd. When I was younger, they would be light one time and heavy the next. Hardly ever did they come less than 2 or 3 mos apart.
Anyway, I have been with my husband for 5 years now, married for 3, and well, no kids yet, lol. Yeah he has been deployed for 2 years now, but still.
When I had my pap, my DR wanted some bloodwork done. Check thyroid and glucose... Thyroid was fine, glucose a little on the high side of normal.
SO he put me on Metformin.
That stuff is evil. I don't think I have ever had to go so much in my life, it makes me feel like I am going to barf.....
He told me it would help level out my Blood Sugar, Help me lose some weight, and might help me to start ovulating/ having my cycles. All due to the BS.
I don't know if it is just me, but does that sound like he thinks I have PCOS but just didn't name it, or am I just a freak?
