Well it's an endocrine disorder that causes u to have irregular bleeding, problems with ovulation, and the other stuff u mentioned......it's one of the worst thing u can get to me at least lol.......Girl moody is an understatement lol....Well can u go to a free clinic they can probably help u

Sure does sound like it is pcos. Sorry, it sucks not having insurance. The suggestion about a free clinic is a good idea, becuase insulin resistance, infertility and Thyroid problems usually go along with it. A free thing you can do that will help you is diet and exercise. And when I say diet, I don't mean go on a diet, I mean change your diet. Whole wheat, fruit, veggies and low fat meat. Limit sweets, pastries and caffiene. 30 mins of aerobic a day. These few things could make a huge differnce for you. Good luck.
