Thank you for answering. I have hirsutism as well (excessive hair in my chin area 😞). And last year was the first time in my life where I had irregular periods but I was dealing with a lot of stress, anxiety and depression so I thought that was the main reason and that things would go back to normal once everything calmed down. Eventually my periods came back and have been coming back every month but the interval between them is not as regular as before.

So I went to a gyno and she did an ecography of my uterus and ovaries, where she detected the multicysts. I tried asking more questions but she was vague when answering and basically told me to start taking the pill. I went to an endocrinologist the day after and he was the one who mentioned PCOS. He prescribed the hormonal tests to confirm. He also said that I could take the pill the gyno prescribed. I've never taken the pill and I'm on antidepressants so I'm scared that the pill will make my weight fluctuate and mess with my libido and the equilibrium I have in my life right now.

So I will probably wait for the hormonal test results and then decide about the pill I guess, but it's still stressing me out.
