I had a very similar experience. The symptoms do sound of PCOS. My previous Dr. tried to suggest that all of my symptoms were just a cause of being overweight and he was very wrong. If you think that you might have it you might ask your Dr. to run some other blood work checking hormone levels: androgen & estrogen. And if you are not satisified with your current Dr. it is inportant that you find a new one!!
