I don't know if this is right. Like is this what im meant to do if i want to issue a comment ? If its not.... i'm sorry, and i guess you can tell i'm a virgin at this.
well, to be honest, i don't know where to start, The beginning is a good place i guess.
Ok, im Hayley, im 17 and today, i've been diagnosed (sorta) that i have PCOS. I'm a full time student, and i've always been aware of my image, being a 17 yr old girl its pretty obvious i would be right ?
Well i had my suspicions, and decided against them for a while, but then enough became enough, and i consulted both a doctor and a nurse, before another doctor had actually taken notice off me. So that was good !
The blood test was hillarious mind, i get so nervous, that i laugh stupid amounts. A trate i've kindly achieved through my mother i believe. I think the nurse thought i was abit strange, but meh, someone had to be optimistic.
Getting the results through today, was like being kicked in the stomach a few thousand times, a mixture of confusion and the feeling of just getting up and running right through the door.
I knew a little about it, but not its full effects, or 'consiquences' of living with it.
The whole purpose of me writing this, is because although I knew i wouldn't of been as alone as i felt right there and then, i need someone to tell me... how they felt... or are feeling.. and that what i'm going through isn't rediculously bizaree.
I need a friend, and this in so many ways, is a cry for help.
please someone e-mail me back.
- even if it's just to say i'm not alone, it will be appreciated.
Welcome to SC, glad you found it here! With that said, you are not alone. This can be really hard to deal with, especially at a young age. I went through a lot that you explained. I found out when I was late teens, early 20's. I was just so devastated because of the little I knew about this. It did explain a lot of problems I went through growing up that took the doc over 5yrs to discover. But things are not as bad as our minds usually want us to think. This can be dealt with and w/ meds even somewhat controlled. This is a great community of gals here and I have learned so much in the short time I've been actively on the board. The years between the first mention of pcos by my doc, and the time I joined here were tough. I felt alone as many didn't understand the things we go through. Hang in there, it will start looking up. You're still young and have plenty of time to get your issues under control.
BTW, there is a section just for pcos teens you may want to check out as well. It could be eaysier to talk to people your age going through the same things.

Can't wait to start WW again and loose the other 15lbs I gained with the last pregnancy and the 30lbs I still needed to lose with the first one.

Before i go off on one... i wish you the best of luck and love for your wedding. If we don't speak after this, which i hope we do.
thank you so much for contacting me back, it helped me alot. I still feel abit... shocked to be honest, i only found out 12 hours ago exactly. I have to go under so many more tests yet though, it really doesn't help being afraid of needles.
Yes, thank you for your information, i will look @ the teenage bit. I really do feel so alone. How pathetic this must sound to everyone else on here.. who have heard this a thousand times and one.
You do not sound pathatic at all! We've all been there and it will take awhile to get used to how everything runs on this board! I've been here for almost 4 years and I still encounter problems!
What to expect? Wonderful support from these ladies and lots of info on PCOS.
Hi
I just wanted to welcome you and let you know although this is hard for you now it will get easier and there is a lot you can do to help symptoms, etc.
Read all you can and if you have questions, just ask.
This is the most supportive group of people I have ever chatted with.
I have had PCOS since I was 11 but wasn't diagnosed officially until I was 21. My biggest worry was not being able to have children and now I have 2.
As you can see there are many of us, and we all know to some degree what you are going through.
You can go to your user cp at the top and PM me anytime.
i don't know....
