Hi everyone! and thanks for the welcome Anjali
I'm 23 years old and I was diagnosed with PCOS about 5 years ago. I am of filipino/chinese descent. I dont fit the typical image of someone with PCOS as I am short 5'3" and i weigh about 110 lbs. The only symptom I have is irregular periods and my doctor put me on birth control pills.
when i fould out i had pcos i never really thought much of it because my symptoms are not superficial, but lately i've become more concerned especially because both my parents are diabetic. Also, the idea of infertility has also become more of a worry as I am getting older.
I'm really glad to have found ppl with similar issues as me. I dont think i know of any other women with PCOS and i've found it hard to deal with because although everyone i know tries to be understanding, they can never really know what its like.
anyways, I look forward to getting to know all of you. this site is amazing!
