I would like to learn more too

I have an endocrinologist for my PCOS and it's been working well for me. If you are trying to conceive, a reproductive endocrinologist specifically can be helpful as well. It depends on your specific symptoms. The hallmark trait of PCOS is ovarian cysts. Not everyone with PCOS has them, but it's good to get checked out. Cysts are mostly be benign, but they can cause pain and may even become cancerous, so it's good to be aware of them even if they're not causing you immediate trouble. You should be able to get a trans-vaginal ultrasound from your primary care doctor to check for them. If you are trying to conceive in the future, PCOS could be an issue. If pregnancy is not a goal, I would say the main day-to-day health concern of PCOS is insulin resistance, which puts you especially at risk for diabetes. Luckily an endocrinologist can help manage diabetes as well, so it's a two for one there. Insulin resistance also makes it easier to gain weight and harder to lose weight, so if you've ever had problems in that area, PCOS is probably the cause. Your primary care doctor should be able to test your blood sugar as an initial diabetes test. A couple other big symptoms of PCOS are excess facial and body hair, and your head hair falling out. Unfortunately, they haven't yet discovered a way to treat these symptoms, so all you can do is manage the effects directly as best you can. This is just a general overview, so let me known if you have any more specific questions!

Thank you I appreciate it ❤️
