Hi! I am also 29 going on the big 30. I have just been diagnosed after doctors telling me that I was just overweight and needed to control it. That I didn't have periods because it is normal for women to do that. I had to go on clomid for 2 years before I had my first daughter. I have everyone of the symptoms that come along with this disease and it took this long. I hope that this new OB/GYN will help me. My story is a very long one so I won't get into it. I just thought I would write you and tell you that if you ever needed someone to talk to that understands feel free to email me. mask11@msn.com Lots of luck to you!
