I am the same way! Got off of BCP in Nov 2008. No period still mid Jan 2009, so I went to the dr, started clomid...no ovulation. dr did an u/s and saw multiple cysts and said it was pcos...but i don't think she had a testosterone or insulin level checked. Progesterone level was very low (<0.5). I am thin, have no excessive facial hair but do have a few small skin tags, have always had irregular periods (basically have never had a period without BCP) and have experienced increased wt gain in the past 2 years. So, my dr is treating me like i have pcos- i started metformin and am continuing with fertility drugs.
