I think I have PCOS

Ania

I’m going to the gynecologist for the first time next month as I think I may have pcos. I have hormonal acne and hirsutism. My period is irregular although not severely (1-2 weeks off). Would the gynecologist do a scan during the appointment or how would it go?

I don’t want to go on birth control to regulate my hormones, does anyone have any natural treatment suggestions?

Also when did your PCOS first show itself? I’ve had hormonal acne for years but had it disappear for a while but this year it has come back well and alive so I wonder why I had it under control for years...

Any info would be welcome! I’m 21 btw
