I have been to the doctors multiple times as I have a few symptoms of PCOS and my mum has it. I just get fobbed of every time and I just want to get something to manage my symptoms!!

I can relate to this! I felt that unless you want the pill or to conceive they dont want to know. I had to be persistent to get metformin to manage my symptoms. It only happened when I finally got a referral to the hospital. The consultant also wrote to my doctor to say if I go 3 months without a period they need to induce one. Keep at it!

Thank you it’s nice to hear I’m not the only one and hopefully if I keep trying I will get somewhere. Yeah I got offered the pill but I wanted to come off it as next year I want to try for a baby!

I can completely relate!! I’ve been passed to the hospital but in the meantime months go by where the doctors can’t do anything until it’s confirmed. It’s so frustrating but just keep pushing them for answers!
