I'm so happy to "maybe" have an answer to my varying health problems! And thank you for listening! Starting with puberty, I had irregular periods (even went an entire summer without one), light peach fuzz facial hair (one friend called me fuzzy), and moderate acne. Birth control helped the periods, I shaved the fuzz...and then started getting a dark mustache in college...so started shaving that! I found acne products that helped make the acne better but never gone (it's still not.) I became depressed and went on and off Prozac with the help of therapy,figured it was all not related.

I got pregnant at 22 (suprise!) and without any complications had a beautiful baby boy. However, 2 years later (and not breastfeeding anymore) I was bloated and started having breast discharge kind of like milk. I had an u/s and the tech said, yep you have cysts...the doctor called back and said "everything is fine"...well it went away and I said "oh well". Then the hairs on my chin became more and more, the mustache turned into a nightmare. So I spent $600.00 on laser treatments that has helped but not completely removed all the hair (it's spread to under my chin and neck). WTF! In the midst of complaining about my manly hair and cysts... I talked to my mom who said, oh I have PCOS.

Well now we're TTC for about 6 months now, and I haven't had a period for 2 1/2 months so my LOVELY Nurse Practitioner is having me do hormone tests and another u/s to "see what's going on with your body". If it's not PCOS I'll be surprised.
