Hi everyone,
I am Sally, I am 22 years old, and have been lurking around this site for around a month, and finally decided to join, as I can see the support is great.
I am not 100% sure I have PCOS at the moment, as I am still undergoing testing to prove or disprove it, however some of my symptoms seem to be consistant with such.
Since I was 12...up until April this year, I have had 100% clockwork periods, then I had 2 one day periods in May and June, a full period in July (thought that must be the end of my problems) then nothing since then, apart from a few spots here and there, though I have been getting other period arrival symptoms. (Can't be pregnant, not sexually active, and I haven't been stressed or changed anything environmentally either.)
I have begun to notice more hair growing on my arms and I am getting hairy knees which I have never had before. My mood swings are terrible, and so I went to the doctors after Septembers period failed to arrive as expected. I have also gained quite a lot of weight recently, and my weight goes up and down dramatically for no reason at all. (Though I do good exercise and eat healthily etc). This makes my wardrobe go from 16-22 depending on the day/month etc. I am declared obese.
Doctor ordered blood tests, and they came back as no result, as they didn't get enough, so they have decided to send me for a pelvic ultrasound scan, so just playing the waiting game now.
That's enough from me,
Regards,
Sally
