Sounds like PCOS or something serious. You should get to a doctor as soon as you can, and make sure before you see that doctor that he/she is very familiar with this disease and treats it, as many do not. The fatigue that many of us get from PCOS is not due to a lack of iron, so be careful with the supplements.
