: I'm a 23 year old female who can't find a MD who will listen to the problems i've been having for over 2 yrs now. I was living with my boyfriend and we were wanting to have children. For over 2 yrs. we had unprotected sex but never concieved. I started to gain weight (over 100lbs) but i never changed my eating habits and exercise regulary. My periods have never been regular but they started to be more infrequent to the point now to where i haven't had one in several months. I've started to have hair grow on my chin and upper lip. I'm so embaressed. My old OB/GYN told my it was my fault b/c i was gaining weight and told me to go on a diet. I want some help. From doing research it sounds like i have PCOS. Someone please help me!!!!

You need to see an endocrinologist. If you can find a reproductive endo, that is even better.
