Default Doc just diagnosed me but I have doubts...

I went for my yearly exam a few weeks ago and the doctor decided that I may have PCOS because I've been having irregular periods lately. I am overweight, and have the problems with facial hair. They did the bloodwork and only my insulin and testosterone levels were elevated. I had my daughter in 2004 and had no trouble conceiving her, and before her my periods were totally regular. I just feel as though I don't fit the profile for having PCOS. Has anyone else been diagnosed with it but had a similar history as mine?

Everyone woman differs with PCOS. Some woman have PCOS and have 3 children convieved natural. I wouldnt base your Dx off that, but your doctor should have ran your LH and FSH as well IMO. Are you IR?? and what was the level of your testosterone. Some woman have everything normal but high testosterone.
