Re: have 9 year old w/beginning symptoms, any ideas or suggestions?From: Tracy (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 29 Mar 2000 16:10:48 -0600 (CST)
I started showing symptoms of IR and PCOS by age 7! The weight gain began almost overnight at age 7 and by age 8 I had the acne and oily skin and hair and by age 9 had breasts and body hair and by age 10 was having mood swings, very heavy menstrual periods, and episodes of hypoglycemia. Of course, 22 years ago they had no clue what was wrong with me and just put me on an exchange diet for the weight gain and on antibiotics and harsh topical acne treatments for the acne. I don't know what to say except for the fact that this disorder can strike very young and to try anything you can to get her treatment.
