I have never actually been diagnosed with PCOS. No one (my gynecologist, as an example) has ever said that to me, but I do/have had ovarian cysts. I also have cervical polyps. They're no big deal for me and my gynecologist has said that the ovarian cysts could disappear. Perhaps I don't have PCOS. Nevertheless, I do have ultrasounds to check on these during my annual appointments.

I think the only symptom of PCOS that I have had, but not severely, is a little hair growth where I'd prefer it not be, but maybe that's because I'm a middle-aged lady now. I do have high cholesterol/triglycerides, but that's likely partly Seroquel XR's doing. I am overweight, but not excessively. Everything else is fine. My skin is clear and my periods pretty normal. In my case, I don't think my cysts have affected my moods negatively.
