i have not been diagnosed with PCOS but i suspect that i may have it. i have a doctor appointment next week so hopefully i can get some answers. but i thought i would post here and get some feedback from some of you! my only real symptom is excessive hair. i have dark hair on my chin, forearms, line below the belly button, and on my entire legs including thighs. i have always thought that i was just a hairy person but over the past 10 years or so the hair has very slowly gotten worse. i have been getting laser on my chin as this was the most embarrassing for me. anyway, as i have been learning more about laser hair removal i read that PCOS is often the cause of hirsutism in women. i know it sounds stupid taht i never considered my hairiness to have a possible medical cause but its true!! i just learned how to deal with it. anyway, i have always had regular periods except about a year ago they went from about 28 day cycles to about 23 day cycles. i have never been overweight and i dont have any of the other symptoms that i have read about. so what i am wondering is if anyone with PCOS only has the excess hair problem. thanks so much for any feedback you can give me!!
