Well I am kind of going through the same thing. I am 20 years old and my periods have been irregular since high school.They dont come at all sometimes, and when they do come, they are usually extremely heavy and very very long. I have been on and off the pill because I wasnt sure if the pill is what was making me gain so much weight. My doctor said that I have cysts on my ovaries but that they dont mean anything. I have gained a significant amount of weight in the past 4 years. The hair on my body grows extremely fast, especially on my face, chin, sideburns, etc. But the hair on my head just will not grow because it thins and breaks off as it does grow. I have extremely dark spots around my neck and on the back of my thighs, and ears. I feel sooo ugly sometimes. I dont know where the dark skin spots come from or the hair thinning on the scalp and extreme hair growth on the body comes from. But I just want to be normal. I hate feeling so insecure about how I look (my hair, my weight, my skin, etc.) |
