I'm a bit older thatn you, mid-20's, but you're very welcome to the board! You're definitely not alone on this PCOS thing. Estimates vary from 5% to 20% of all women, although I think the most common one I see is 10%. So, that's one in 10 females - you're definitely not alone!!

Let us know if we can help with anything!
