Default 19 and wondering

Hi. I'm a new visitor here. I posted something on one of the other boards and then I saw that this was specifically for teens. Though I consider myself to be an adult, I guess I'm still a teen. Anyway, a little about myself...
Started my period when I was 14.5 (exactly)
First 2 were anovulatory, then I started ovulating
They weren't real regular, but good enough (32-54 days alternating)
One year after I started my period I went on the pill. I was on for about 2.5 years when I went off. I had one period after about 30+ days, and then nothing. After 5 months I called the Dr. and was prescribed prometrium to induce a period. I went back on the pill. During this time when I was off, I found out I had tiny cycts on my ovaries. My Dr. said that they were nothing to worry about. Thay ran some blood tests too. (For some reason, a urinary pregnancy test came out positive, even though I wasn't pregnant) Everything came back basically normal. I was back on the pill for 5 months and went off again in Jan of this year. I had one period after 66 days. I waited another 66 days for another one (which would have been this last Sunday) and I didn't get it. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. I'm almost positive that I am NOT ovulating. I knew when I was before I ever got on the pill because of a very distinct discharge that I got for the three days of it, but nothing now. I am so worried that there is something wrong with me. I know I am young, but I would like to have children in about 3 years. I know that sometimes it can take that long just to conceive. I want to get this fixed so that when I'm ready, I can get pregnant normally with no problems. My boy friend seems to think I'm thinking too far ahead (3 years is an eternity to him), but I would be absolutely devastated if I couldn't have children. It's been a year since my Dr. saw the cysts. I have an appointment for my annual pap in two weeks and I scheduled an ultrasound for the same time to view the cysts. I feel like my Dr. is putting them off as nothing and I really fell like there IS something to worry about. Am I over-concerned? Is my Dr. right, or should he be more concerned too? I am lost. A lot of people think that I am too young to have problems like this, but I don't think I am.
Please help. All advice is welcome.
Thanks for listening.
Jessie

Default One more thing...

I forgot to mention that I only have some symptoms of PCOS. I have the obvious period and ovulatory problems, but as for weight, I am only 100lbs, and I don't have any hair problems. I do however have acne like I never used to. I feel like I'm getting to old to be breaking out like a 15 year old.
