What is PCOS?

Hi, i heard or come about PCOS in one of the article. How do you know if you have PCOS? And where do you go for consultation if you want to get checked?

Common symptoms will be irregular menses and cramps. I do have pcos and its very common among women. Pcos may cause difficulties to be pregnant. It also depends on how severe it is. Usually you will need to take a blood test during your 1st or 2nd day of menses if i recalled correctly. I went to a private gyane clinic to do the check. Once confirmed i had pcos, i was put on medication to adjust my hormones and given ovulation medication to help with getting pregnant. I am now pregnant at 33 weeks. So there are still possibilities to be pregnant even if you have pcos.

I didn't know i have pcos, i went to see the gyane as i was trying for a baby for a year but to no avail. Thus i was referred to a gyane from my gp when i told my gp i got irregular menses and was trying for a baby for a year.
