Does anyone out there have PCOS and hypothyroid? In my relentless search for answers to my hair loss issue and with the instinctual belief that this could be something else.. I keep stumbling over PCOS. In addition to the hair loss, about 8 months ago I noticed alot more annoying peach fuzz on my face. No additional hair on the rest of my body. In addition to this I have had this unexplained pitted edema no matter how high my thyroid med was raised and this symptom always remains when I have felt pretty good.

The edema problem accounts for all of my switches in med dosage.

I wonder how much of a stretch this is.. but every time in the last six months that I have mentioned facial hair I have been brushed off. Doesn't any of this warrant an investigation? I don't even know who to go to for this and the docs I have are like done with me already.. Is this a possibility for why I am not getting 100% well?
