so i told my OBGYN that I have had tons of ruptured ovarian cysts and crazy bleeding all the time. I gained weight, have acne now for the first time ever and my hair is growing ultr fast and starting to grow on my neck (gross!). so I said "i have poly cystic ovary syndrome" and told her that i know the symptoms and i have all of them. plus my last blood test showed high levels of testosterone. so they did another blood tests and didnt even check my androgens!!!! they checked my hCG betw subunit to see if i was pregnant or had an ectopic pregnancy, my TSH (which is on the low end), my prolactin which is normal, my hemoglobin and hematocrit which are both on the high side. and then told me everything was normal!!!! i cant believe they never checked my freaking testosterone. they just totally ignored everything i said. not to mention in my ultra sounds i have ovarian cysts and a polyp attached to the wall of my uterus.
i swear sometimes it feels like i know more than my freaking doctors do. how hard is it to see weight gain, acne, ovarian cysts, uterine polyps, excess hair growth and think PCOS!!! geesh. sorry i just really needed to vent. because basically im going through hell every single month and the people who im paying their damn salaries ignore everything i say. i have been going through this for over 2 years. i just want a doctor to take what i say seriously for once. yes im 20 but im not a friggen idiot.
