That did help a little bit but I really would like to learn a little bit more. My doctor told me this morning that she thinks I have it but wont know for sure until we do some blood work. And I would like to know a little about this if I do have it. I have gained a lot of weight, have acne, having a lot of hair, and very irregular periods. Am I going to have trouble conceiving when I'm older. I'm only 15. Or diabetes?

the best thing for you to do is have regular check ups with your dr if you do have pcos. Really have your mum & dad support you with this, being diagnosed early teens is great because you can have better chance on knowing what to do when you want to have children.
Wait for the blood tests to come back then ask your dr these same things.

Thanks that was helpful, also i am happy to find other teens dealing with the same problems as me. I havent read much on dealing with pcos when you a teen.

This was very helpful, but the only symptom that is bothersome for me is the weight gain and inability to lose weight. I need answers and advice on what to do next. Im eating a very healthy low-carb, high-protein, 1200 calorie diet and exercising regularly but I have stayed at 140 (30 pounds up from where I was and should be) for the last 5 months. I'm not insulin resistent and I dont have thyroid problems. my mom is fed up with me asking for doctors appointments and she doesnt understand how DESPERATELY I want answers to help me get back to a normal and more attractive weight. Any suggestions as to what could be causing my extremely annoying metabolic defficiency?
