I have been having unprotected sex with DH for over 2 years and never got pregnant. Since I found this site I noticed that many of the symptoms I am reading about I have as well. I have suffered with a sharp pain on my right side for many years now. The pain is right in the crease of the leg by the hip area and is extremely severe and sharp then it goes away. It comes and goes from time to time and has been for many years now. I also have some hair growing on my chin and cheecks. I have complained about the pain and have had an US done. They didn't find cycst however they noticed extra fluid. I also get dark patches on my skin and after reading this info it makes me think that I have PCOS as well.I have asked drs about the dark spots on my stomach and they don't seem to know what it is. I will be scheduling a appointment to try and get a dx. Reading all of the info on this site has been extremely helpful.

I hope you get your DX and get on a good treatment plan that works for you.

The dark spots could be AN: http://www.diabetes.org/for-parents-...tes/type-2.jsp

If so you could have IR or diabetes. Get your blood sugar and insulin levels checked and think about starting Metformin or Cinnamon (I'm on both).
