Oh Jess... I am sorry you are having a rough go of it. What kind of Dr do you go to for your PCOS? Sounds like you may want to look in to finding a good endocrinologist or pediatric endocrinologist. The hormone problems are bad enough in us older girls but having them thru puberty must be awful. See if you can find a good doctor!

HUGS!

Thank u so much.I also have endometreosis wich was diagnosed about 7 months ago..I have been put on met but that didnt help one bit! I have been prescribed 100 paracetomol a month (repeat p[rescription) 50 solpadol (prescription) and i genrally take ibruferfen and buscapan .I do find buscapan is good as its a anti spasmodic.Can any one tell me what are the signs of a cyst bursting or symptons etc...thanks again xx

You may want to talk to your doctor about switching your birth control. Every brand of pill effects every woman differently. I know changing pills made a world of difference for me- helped with cramps, stopped my nasty mood swings, I felt like a new person!

I know it sucks right now, but at least you are finding this out now, rather than 10 years down the road. The sooner you can kick this thing in the butt, the better off you are. Keep pushing forward, you're going to make it!

Also, about the boob thing, unless they are fake, women's boobs are not symmetrical. They can be even cup sizes apart, and that's for women without hormonal problems as well!
