Re: ladies and body hair

Good to know. Doctors keep insisting I don't have PCOS, but none of them have deigned to formally check and rule it out. Since I don't really have any complaints that fit the bill, other than acne and the body hair I mentioned, they dismiss it. My cousin with PCOS, on the other hand, never started menstruating until she was put on the pill at 16.

Ugh, I had almost the same problem. Doctors dismissed my worries for years, didn't do any tests and simply wanted to put me on the pill, which would just give me a regular period and mask the only symptom I had: lack of regular periods. I didn't have acne or too much body hair, but guess what, when I went to a different doctor and specifically mentioned PCOS and getting tested, they sent me for an ultrasound and I was FULL of cysts.

I hope you manage to get actually tested, anon. And I hope your cousin is not simply on a pill but getting regular tests to see if the pill is helping her.

Presumably. At this point, it has to have been at least 15 years since she was diagnosed.

I'll try to make another pitch for having myself checked next time I have an annual exam. I'd pretty much given up asking about it after more than one doc dismissed it, and it hadn't been worrying me much in any case.

Oh god, insist that they test. My GP insisted that I didn't have because I "didn't have enough male pattern body hair" even though none of the men in my family have the pattern he was talking about, even though I had almost every other goddamn symptom. Finally my dad put his foot down and sure enough, riddled with cysts.

Luckily for me the pill is sufficient to take care of it.
