PCOS from worried about cancer
by mbailey622, Aug 25, 2005 12:00AM
This is the symptoms of PCOS and I don't have any of these. So why the Pcos diagnosis from my doctor? Maybe some weight gain but who doesn't? right? I have cyst thats all and they are large and there is quite a few.
PCOS can contribute to irregular periods, depression, excessive weight gain (despite diet and exercise efforts), acne, and excess facial hair. It is also a common cause of infertility.
I am so confused.

The other symptoms are caused by these cysts on the ovaries, since ovarian cysts disrupt normal ovary function and hormone production.
That is the tricky thing about symptoms of any disease - a person can have one, several, or in some cases even none of the common symptoms of the disease. Also, symptoms can come and go over time.
Yes, perhaps you should get a second opinion, or have your doctor clarify his or her diagnosis of your condition.
