PCOS?

Emily

Since I was 16 I’ve been dealing with excess body hair (face, stomach, etc), and I’m just now realizing that is a common symptom of PCOS. I’ve also gained 50 pounds in the last year that I can’t seem to control. I have always had a really regular period though. Those of you who are diagnosed, should I get checked, or do i need to have irregular periods to have PCOS?
