Hi Alicia,

I have also read that low body temp. is a symptom of pcos. It is usually associated with hypothyroidism, and thryroid is often blamed for problems before a dx of pcos is made. I also have very low bbt (92-97). Maybe you are on to someting - I'm going to ask my RE next visit.

luck and love, SusieQ
