PCOS? Normal?

[itsnearlymytime]

Hey,

So my partner and I want to start trying for a baby in summer, we have a few things we want to do before this happens.

But as I'm excited I've been reading up on conception and came across ladies with PCOS and one of the symptoms was Hirsutism.

I have a regular cycle, I ovulate as have been doing ovulation tests, but I have hair on my stomach, chest and hairs on my chin too! Does this sound like PCOS or could it be something else? I will get booked in with the doctor but this has just made me worry!

Thanks x

I have PCOS. If you look up how it is diagnosed you will see the criteria. I believe you need to meet 2 of 3 criteria - signs of hormone problems (ie irregular periods, thinning hair on head, excess hair on body, acne), abnormal blood results and follicles on ovaries. Speak to your GP and they should send you for an ultrasound and blood test. Good luck x

It does sound like PCOS! Give this tea a try for those symptoms you mentioned! It's been very helpful! praybiotics.com/products/pcos
