Pregnancy Symptoms?! Or Af/PCOS ?!

Hi all - so I’m starting my ttc journey with PCOS which I didn’t know about until around a month ago.

Recently I’ve had a few symptoms which I could be over reading info but I’d be interested to see if anyone else has experienced them.

Firstly I have no idea how many dpo I am as impossible to tell with pcos

However I’ve been experiencing the following -
This pain on my left butt cheek like I’ve done too many squats
Not a frequent need to urinate but sitting there thinking this is going on a while
Waking up really early and hungry
A little pain that runs through my breasts from my arm pit
Brown discharge very minimal but lasted a few days with spots (note the normal period is not light)

Just be interested if anyone had anything similar - all of this is slightly different to anything ive experienced on a cycle before.

Have you done a test? If not, maybe get one - it's the only way to know.
I have pcos with varying cycle lengths and found monitoring my bbt very useful as then at least you know when you ovulated and when to test. Cheap and easy too ☺️

To put your mind at rest, I'd probably get a FRER and test

I have PCOS too. I once went 3 years with no period. My cycles returned after losing weight and my cycle length was 60 days (midwife didn't believe me) and have only gotten shorter after 2 DC.

There's hope, maybe also start tracking your cycles with an app or even marking your calendar
