What i refer to as my pcos symptoms have been getting worse over recent years- very hard to manage hair growth, heavy erratic periods, lethargy, weight gain, depression, anxiety.
The heavy periods and bloating were seen as symptoms of ovarian cancer so I was sent for a scan. The scan saw no cysts whatsover (and thankfully no cancer). This was a surprise as Ive always had comments along the lines of 'melon' 'large orange' in relation to the size of my ovaries. Bloods were run and all came back normal- no PCOS symptoms at all. Thyroid, cushings, the whole range normal. How can this be?
Endocrinologist said to just go back and speak to GP as there was nothing he was able to prescribe or suggest due to all bloods being 'normal'. 'Maybe it's just your age?' he said. Bloods also say Im not peri-menopausal.
So on the one hand, Im happy as there are no immediate serious issues, but on the other I am frustrated as I am far from 'normal' and my body is telling me it isnt happy.
Anyone else experienced similar?
