It took me 6 years to figure out that I have PCOS now I have a few unanswered questions left.. Thank you for your time!!!!
That's a sure sign of Sleep Apnea. Please research it and bring up the condition to your doctor right away! I read that Sleep Apnea and PCOS go hand in hand. I didn't know that until I read up about PCOS.

I had Sleep Apnea from age 9 to 11 and I had constant UTI's and bedwetting as a result. It's crazy that I was showing signs of PCOS at age 9! I think mines was missed because of my age. The doctor told my parents it was normal for 9, 10, and 11 year olds to wet the bed, but my mom kept telling her no it's not.

I had to go to an Ears, Nose, and Throat Specialist (I was referred by my general practioner) to get diagnosed. Treatment is so simple (just some pills you take for 7-14 days) and yet some doctors miss it.

Along with bedwetting and constant UTI's how is your sleep? Are you constantly interrupted in the night? Does your S/O (if you have one) notice that you constantly wake up through the night?


Hound your docs until you get the proper testing to figure out what's causing your symptoms.
