Because i have symptoms coming out the arse and my doctor knows, but she said there is nothing they can do unless i want to have a baby. But for some reason i dont think thats right. I mean i havent had a period in 5 years since i came off bc. And i feel that maybe this wouldnt be so bad if i was on something...i mean why are they waiting till i want a baby...wouldnt being on meds help me in the long run for when im ready?
I was just diagnosed with PCOS and was basically told to walk it off (which infuriates me to no end) and that my period should return once I lose a specific amount of weight, but if it doesn't I'll have to go on meds. What kind of meds I'm not sure, but I wish I had something now.

I haven't had a period since November 2008 and with each passing month I feel less and less like a woman. I guess that's just the psychological part of the diagnosis, but I get tired of women telling me, "Oh I wish I didn't get my period every month." I just want to tell them, "NO YOU DON'T!"

Oh I don't have any children myself and I'm not looking to conceive any time soon, but like you I don't think it's right for doctors to not treat your symptoms unless you're trying to have a baby.

I guess the key is to find a good doctor.
