I haven’t been diagnosed with polycystic ovaries but I believe I have it. My mum has got it but I’m having symptoms like; weight gain (I’ve gained 4 stone in 2 1/2 years), I have hair growing in a line down m abdomen and on my face. I can’t seem to get my weight gain uncontrol. It seems not matter what I do it doesn’t help. I am also on birth control. What should I do?
You likely have it because it is hereditary and you are showing symptoms so go to your doctor asap! You are having a hard time losing weight because your hormones are imbalanced, in that you have more androgens like testosterone. Before you will see any real changes you gotta get to your doctor and they will help you balance out your hormones again.
