I put myself down as a 4 because I'm pretty sure they said I have increased androgens, but I'm also borderline obese and have type 2 diabetes- who says you can't have it all?

Hmm..I guess I am either a 1 or a 3. I am not sure about insulin resistance as I have not been tested for that yet. I go for tests in July.

Tests aren't always accurate. Check this link: http://www.medreviews.com/cme_progra.../faq.asp?nav=6

I'm a one. I could be a five, but, I am almost certain that I don't ovulate on my own. Between BCP's and fertility drugs and/or provera, I have not gotten a period otherwise.

I think I'm a number 2 - no one has specifically ever said that I have it, but that is the one that best describes me:

endocrine syndrome X -- anovulatory, increased androgens, insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes
I do not O, I have pretty high androgen levels, and I am IR.

This makes me wonder how many more types there could actually be, because I would be a 3 with out the obeseity. Could you even change things around, like have 1 or 2 of the symptoms of 2 and 3?

I'm still very new and don't have a full DX yet....in testing but she is sure it is some form of PCOS....since I do have fairly regular periods, I would say I have either 4 or 5....will have further testing in the next few weeks to determine IR, androgen, etc...

So good to find you all!!!!
Blessings,
coco

I think I am type 5, I get my periods but I'm not sure if I ovulate. I am underweight as I have a job where I am on my feet 24/7 and all my family has a fast metabolism. I have facial hair and acne and can't get preg. I over eat but I don't seem to get fat and eat bad take way foods which is why I have high blood pressure and cholestrol. The doctors told me to stop eating meat ( I pretty much live off pork crackling) but I can't help it and get real bad cravings for oil and anything deep fried. I buy vege's but they go bad in my fridge and I throw them in the bin, I pretty much can't stand anything that isn't bread, meat or pasta. I am scared that if I go on meaformin I will lose more weight, diane 35 makes me lose weight too but I have been diagnosied with type 2 diabeites.
