Polycystic ovary syndrome Question

Ok I am going to my doctor in a few weeks to see if I have PCOS. I was just wondering if it is very likely that I have the disease.

I'm 17 and my periods haven't ever really been regular and sometimes I'll miss 3 or 4 in a row. My last period was about 8 weeks ago.

I am over weight, but I am not obese. I watch what I eat and I exercise a lot, but I gain weight each year. Two years ago I became obsessive with my weight and lost 15 pounds in 4 months. A week after I lost it, I didn't gain or lose for about two weeks, then gained it all back very fast.

I am also flat chested. I'm not sure this is a common symptom, but my mom says it is. I wear an a cup and sometimes that is too big for me. My boobs never fully formed either, they are still kinda pointy and not round. They haven't grown since middle school.

I don't know if I have more facial hair than most women because I dont know what's common, but I pluck my upper lip hairs every week or every other week, but they aren't really noticeable if I forget to pluck them. But I always have some hair on my stomach that i shave once, or twice a week. and sometimes I shave my back hair (like once a month). But then again, I don't know if I have more hair than other women, I may just be a freak who loves to not have hair on my body.

Sorry if this is so long. I know none of you are doctors, but I was just wondering about a rough guess about what the chances were that I had the disease. Please be honest if you answer.

It's quite possible you have PCOS. It's not uncommon. The weight gain, missed periods, and excess hair are definately strong indicators. I'm glad you're getting checked out now, rather than putting it off. It can affect your fertility, your mood, and more importantly- burst cysts hurt like mad. The sooner you're on medication, the better.

Good luck!
