there are apparently two types - polycystic ovaries, which may or may not be accompanied by the range of symptoms, and polycysic ovarian syndrome, which is the full-blown thing. i have the multiple cysts, the facial hair, and tendency to weight gain if i don't stick to a high-protein/low carb/no sugar diet, but i can still conceive. ATM i have a 44mm cyst on my left ovary and am 10kg overweight from a m/c in February, but still i'm preggers till the BT this afternoon tells me otherwise. i got a on the 26/6 but i don't think this is a sticky one either.
i have pcos but no cysts on the ovaries my hormone levels are crazy though and i dont ovulate, you can have poly cystic ovaries but not pcos if that makes sense. i have gained weight recently very quickly i think i have facial hair but dp disagrees (good thing i guess) get break outs a lot i am on clomid which hasnt worked so far, my advice find a new gyno you need one that will listen and take action not one that will just fob you off good luck
I would go and get a full check again of your bloods, I had the exact same thing happen to me, in the end they did a laproscopy as one dr said pcos from my bllods, but when i had them done by a gyno he said no, in the end i do have pcos, last yr i went to a better gyno i had another set of bloods done at ccertain times of the month and bingo PCOS, I have had this now for 12 years
