Please help, I am at brink of sanity!
So, I have had PCOS since I was 15. It has always been screwy with my periods, but the most it would do was skip for 3 months and then go back to a regular routine for months, maybe a year, then do it again.
I am 21 now, and this past year it has been AWFUL. I skipped my period for SIX months! Finally I got it and I was SO happy, because I was like "ah, finally I can go back to normal" and here I am, about 3 1/2 MONTHS later, and my period is STILL here.
I know the TYPICAL response is "go to your doctor!" & I know, I know. However, I HAVE been. My doctor(or well now EX-doctor) kept a close tab on me with having 6-8 week follow ups to track my health, not just for my PCOS, but weight and such.
However, she never once felt worried about the lack of period or the extreme comeback. She kinda shoved it away and didn't even worry about it. I finally convinced her to get me on birth control to try to stop it or at least regulate it, I'm almost done with the first month and NOTHING has happened.
She never once checked up on my PCOS with ultrasounds or CT scans like my old doctors, and she had never sent me to an OBGYN. My mom trusted her, and I trusted her, until she just coldly told my dad he had 6 months to live because he had cancer. We later found out she had messed up A LOT and this could've all been prevented if she would've acted sooner, but that's not the point. The point is, we fired her as our doctor.
However, now we are doctor-less. I found probably the BEST doctor around here(not cancer related, we are ontop of that already) and made an appointment, but it's not till almost the end of April because we are new patients.
I REALLY need someone to at least tell me what it could be, or someone tell me that this will end. I'm scared it'll be something scary like ovarian cancer or something that'll make it impossible to have children, and I think I will just die if that's the case.
I just can't take this anymore. The hormones are crazy, it's messing my anxiety and depression up like a roller coaster, I have back pain continuously, my abdomen hurts, all I can smell now is just menstrual blood, I have spent sooo much money on feminine products, and I just can't handle this much longer.
There is NO way this is a miscarriage or pregnancy, so that's not it. I just really need some answers, please help.
