ktgirl, I almost thought I was reading about myself when I read your post!
I had always been very irregular when I was younger, it was normal for me to go several months (and one time even over a year) without a period... eventually at 19 I went on the pill to get some control.
Stopping the pill, my first cycle was 38 days, which was the shortest I had EVER had in my entire life so I suddenly started to think that maybe I was ok now... I'm now in my second cycle at 65 days and still counting, have had a scan which confirms PCOS and initial blood tests done for the specialist I am seeing in 2 weeks time.
I actually feel quite luck - we haven't been ttc for long, so having found it this early has saved us about a year of heartache, and not only do I have the wonderful support of the women here, one of my oldest and closest friends is a obs/gyn registrar and works with someone who has done quite a lot of research into how to treat PCOS.
