Hi Lynsey,
I have also read something about thyroid causing it too,but cant
remember were..I have elevated prolactin..but I do not have hypothyroid
or cushings. I do believe that PCOS plays havoc with all our hormones
though and effects how our other glands (adrenals,pituitary,ect) and
overies put out hormones. Thanks for sharing this info.Dona
