1. At what age were you diagnosed: 23
2. At what age did you start showing signs of having no period or no ovulation: I had normal cycles until starting/stopping the pill, so I know that was my trigger. I was about 20 when I started missing my periods.
3. Which of the following symptoms do you have: Yes or no
a. Weight gain - yes
b. Acne - yes
c. Insulin resistance - dr said not yet, but probably inevitable
d. Anovulation/Amenorrhea - yes
e. High cholesterol/triglycerides - high cholesterol
f. Hair in unwanted places: a little, but not bad
g. Hair loss - nope. fingers crossed.
h. "String of pearl" cysts on ovaries : Yes I have the lovely pearls
4. Do you have children? No, but TTC!
5. Have you ever had a BFP (feel free to not answer if this is too sensitive)? No, but I know I will soon.
6. Do you get positives on ovulation predictor kits? yes but sometimes I get positives but don't actually ovulate.
7. What treatments are you on or have you tried?
metformin 1500mg a day, 3 clomid cycles from 50-150mg, and currently I'm on my first soy cycle. I ovulated!
8. Have you ever been labeled as mild or severe PCOS by your doctors? No, they have never said whether it was mild or severe but they seem pretty confidant that my being on the younger side is a plus and I will definitely get pregnant.
