Hi there

How where you diagnosed? Was this via scan? These symptoms can be of pcos but also other gyney conditions as well the excess hair growth is down to excess testosterone, is the pain in 1 side or both as it can be the side of your cysts or the whole of your pelvis. Bloating and swollen boobs are also reactions to hormones running rife. I hope this helps x

You need to ensure you have 4 periods a year to keep your uterus healthy so ask the GP for something to force a bleed as it can cause complications if you dont have them.
