Questions and concerns.
Hello, I'm so sorry you're having trouble getting answers, we look to these white coats for everything but the truth is they're figuring it out as they go along too.
I haven't experienced everything you talk of but some parts of your story I do identify with. And PCOS being ONE of your answers seems plausible. I'm pretty sure there's more than one thing going on with your body though right...?
The dark blood you talk of, very PCOS. The irregular periods, also a symptom. You mention blood work, did your hormone levels come back with overactive make hormones? Raised testosterone? Low iron? Low progesterone? Did your ultrasounds reveal cysts on your ovaries? Do you have much body/facial hair? Thinning scalp hair? Are you overweight? Yes to a lot of these questions are synonymous with PCOS sufferers.
Why did a Dr ask you to go for a DNC if you weren't pregnant?
I think you're doing absolutely the right thing taking what you find to the Dr but also, ask to be referred to a PCOS clinic or specialist asap. And good luck x
