Average gal here. My BMI is also below 25 but I have excess fat in almost every part of my body. I never had ovulation problems. No thyroid disorders.I never had belly fat but that changed when my dearest gyno put me on birth control pills last year (YAZ specifically).Now I have hips,arm fat,love handles,fat thighs and a 4 month pregnant looking belly. Though I didn't gain weight easily I usually had such a hard time losing it. The best I ever could do was to shed 5-6 pounds even when I exercised along with dieting. I'm doing resistance training,weight training and a little cardio every day now so let's see what will happen. I also have oily skin,acne,somewhat excess hair and a little hair loss on my head(alopecia) though the endo I visited couple of months ago told me my hormones were normal! I don't know who to believe anymore... My only advice is don't ever go to a gyno for your hormone problems because they don't specialize in that area and they will put you on bcp which doesn't cure PCOS. It will only mask your symptoms and mess up your hormones more.
