Hello

You do tend to be hairy with pcos but it is best to see you gp about your concerns, as some people are more hairy than others in general.

There are some other symptoms like irregular periods, weight gain tho this isn't a symptom for everyone.

Male pattern baldness, fatigue, depression and problems getting pregnant.

You can be diagnosed by symptoms alone as well so list everything that you can think off

The one thing I would say are most women have body and facial hair to a degree - the things you see in magazines are touched up and not normal. If you are dark haired then your body hair will be dark as well.
