Yippeeee! I cannot believe that I have found somebody else who has PCOS AND and underactive thyroid. I have had an underactive thyroid and PCOS for a few years (although each condition has been diagnosed at different times). I would be very interested in emailing you some more but I don't want to send a really long email if you're not even there!!!!!!
