Hello Cailin,
Im not too sure about PCOS. I only know what I have researched, so thank you for telling me about it from your personal experience.
I was very lucky to not put on weight when i had cysits. Mind you the only reason i didnt was because my cysits burst before they were able to get any bigger. I was told at 11 to go on the pill to stop ovulation. but never did, a young girl that age would never think twice about using a contraceptive! But they stopped coming some years later and after being told if they didnt stop im risking my fertility, was enough to scare me.
I was not told anything about PCOS at the time. So I guess I never had it.

You may vent all you like too..hehe its what these forums are for I guess.

Take care,
