I was diagnosed roughly at 21 and my cycles are roughly 38 days but can vastly vary, currently on a 60 day cycle and earlier in the year had 104 day cycle, on average only have 7 periods a year but the cramps are intense. I was diagnosed by complete flook, i was having tests done for my liver and a consultant wrote the wrong information on a letter to my GP about my cycles being normal, I contested this with my GP who turned out to have specialised in PCOS at university so she was very interested to get me fully tested, a few blood tests and ultrasounds later I was diagnosed
