Name: Tory
Age: 26
Family situation: Engaged to a really wonderful man who is about as understanding as anyone ever could be! Very excited about getting married, hopefully next year.
PCOS symptoms: I'm of a normal weight, but have just started to get acne again after years of lovely skin on Dianette. When I'm not on the pill I have no periods at all. Lots of cysts in both ovaries. Mood swings - what a list!
Worst thing about PCOS: The acne, and the worry about the possibility of not being able to conceive.
Medication: Dianette, and 1500mg of Metformin every day.
NHS or Private NHS: NHS, and it's been ok. However I'm trying to get referred again to talk about my spots. GP really, really unhelpful, verging on rude!
Action taken against PCOS: I exercise, and I take my pills! And lots of research
PM or Email: PM's smashing.
Any other info: I'm also plagued by cystitis, and have IBS. Yuck. Nothing seems to work down there!
