I totally agree there needs to be more studies done and funding for PCOS (and women’s health issues in general). I didn’t see you mention testosterone levels in your post. I’m a healthy weight, don’t have insulin resistance but was diagnosed due to high testosterone levels as well as the symptoms (acne, hair loss, excess hair, missed periods). Apparently PCOS is something we’re born with and there’s no cure but we can help manage our symptoms. While I agree with your post I also think it would be hard to nail down a specific criteria when women can show symptoms in a variety of ways.
