22 Y.O. Daughter w/PCOS?

About 6 mths. ago I noticed extreme facial hair (beard-like) under my daughters chin...since she is blonde, and had been shaving it regularly, so this is the first time I became aware of this. After asking her some questions (and having a little bit of knowledge about PCOS), I realized that she had many of the symptoms (excess hair, weight gain, skin tags and late acne). Her HMO doctor took one blood test which came back normal and said, no, she doesn't have PCOS. Well, I think I may have it too based on what I've read, 3 early miscarriages, etc. My mother may have as well. Am wondering what I can do or say to convince this doctor to do more tests?

Thanks!
