My complexion..all of a sudden it was bad! very bad!
sudde & drastic weight gain
having trouble getting pregnant
sudden black hairs on odd parts of my body
last but not least some of my hormone levels were off.
I was diagnosed with this by my RE...after I had been going to my obgyn for a year and he was testing me Chat Icon

ETA- How could I forget...cysts on my ovaries.

I dont have it but my close friend does...she got acne BAD, never had issues with it growing up...It was ALL over her arms, chest , face.....She started getting dark hairs gowing on her neck, she gained a lot of weight, developed diabetes...and was having issues TTC..it all added up, tests confirmed it.
