the thinning is a fairly common PCOS symptom - the reason there are so few photo's of E and I together on FB is because i'm so conscious of the hair thinning (hell, there's not much there at all) - male pattern baldness can happen in pcos sufferers as the testosterone levels in your body are higher than normal. the endocrinologist i was seeing said he could help - if i had finished my family - the meds he would have suggested were testosterone or androgen blockers (cant remember which) and would be deadly to a male child if we conceived...

i know only too well how demoralising it is. i've had some extremely heartless comments made, and i really do feel uncomfortable in my appearance - the hair loss has more impact on me than the fact that i'm overweight!
