I'm so glad that you found this website and I hope that you continue to utilize it to find answers and comfort. You will meet some wonderful gals on here that can assist you.
What kind of specialist did you visit?
I would recommend taking your health into your own hands. And sometimes that means having to wade through a crowd of doctors that may not have the knowledge, patience and empathy that we all need. There is a doctor out there that will be the right fit so keep looking. (FYI - There is an area on this board that helps members locate a PCOS friendly doctor in your locale.) Any doctor that dismisses your concerns and wants to simply "help" you by prescribing birth control and/or telling you to "just lose weight" is clearly not going to be able to assist you. PCOS is more than just putting someone on birth control pills or telling them to lose weight so any doctor who adheres to such sophomoric notions should not be seen anymore.
Continue to research online, come back to this site to post your questions, and make a list of questions that you would like your "specialist" to plainly, seriously address. If you feel that she cannot offer you the relief that you need, then move on. Hang in there and know that you are not alone!
Best of luck!
