Dealing with Chronic Pain and PCOS

I recently started going to a gynecologist and she's really helpful. I told her that I've been having symptoms of endometriosis like terrible period pains, GI issues, chronic pelvic pain, etc. My pain got so bad one night that I was screaming and crying and my parents had to drag me to my room. I've also been recently diagnosed with PCOS but I don't really have the symptoms of it like acne and body hair, but she put me on birth control. I feel like the birth control is helping my PCOS but hurting what else is going on with me. Any tips or advice on how to help with this chronic pain?

I have horrible period cramps too. It's gotten bad enough that I felt like passing out.

What are the symptoms of pcos? - Body hair? Where exactly? Breasts? Chin? At what age is that considered normal? - Acne close to cycle? - Extreme pain during ovulation? - Pain with bowel movements? - Heavy bleeding? - Clotting? - Long periods? What about endo... how do the symptoms differ? Thanks 😁
