I didn't have my period for a whole year.. Bfn of course and I was roughly 16yrs at the time n my previous doctor was useless so I went to a new one she gave me a scan n found like 15 cysts on each ovary... That was when I first found out since then I've had a daughter who is now 4 and fell easily with her. Symptoms through the years would be... Pain in ovary when ovulating, weight gain and more facial hair then normal they r the main ones hope that helps a little bit?

I did have an ultrasound done and they did not see the cysts, but I understand that visualization is not the only definitive method of diagnosis.
