it does sound like you have pcos....you probably should get a referral to an endocrinologist. but even tho, yes only a doc can diagnose it, be forwarned that even if you are diagosed with it, not all docs are up on the latest treatments. so it would behoove you to do some research on your own, even maybe to take to your GP and/or endo if needed.
