Hi! I am 41 and I have been extremely irregular all my life, unitl this last year, and I am now pretty regular-but still experiencing some of the other syptoms, like some hairs growing where they shouldn't, etc., My daughter was just diagnosed with PCOS. I also had to take Clomid to get pg. when we wanted to have a baby. I'm still trying to figure all this out, too. My daughter and I have started on low carb lifestyle and exercise. These darn hormones! I hope that my daughter can have an easier time of it since we jknow early what is wrong with her!
