Hi, my name is Sandra and I am new here. I am a married mother of two. I am from Texas and I'm 30 years old. I have yet to be diagnosed with PCOS. I never even knew what it was until one night I was watching the medical channel which featured a lady having some of the same problems as myself. I then did some internet research coming across a lot of information. I have hair loss(which a doctor said was male patterned baldness), excess hair growth on my face, weight gain( I started gaining weight when I was ten), pain in my ovaries, pain after sex, acne on my face, sometimes on my back, and on my upperarms which looks like a strange rash and never goes away. I have two children though and had no problems becoming pregnant. I do have lots of problems with my periods though. Excessive bleeding, pain, and clots that are so big they scare me. I do have a cycle every month though. I am moody, have night sweats, and a few days before my period I become completely wiped out. My last doctors visit I was told I have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I have recently lost my job and have no insurance. So finding this stuff now really has me freaked out.

Thank you all for the welcome. Jessica, I really appreciate that and if I need to I will take you up on it. The same goes for you. Have a blessed day ladies.
One study I read said that you can have PCOS and get pg easily when you are young. I also got pg very easily (too easily, I was taking BCP), but that was when I was 23, and now at 36 my PCOS symptoms are more obvious, but I no longer ovulate, and now I'm trying to get pg and can't.
