Or that PCOS is linked to infertility problems, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease?"I was gaining weight for no apparent reason. I was also losing hair. So I went to see the doctor. After a physical exam, ultrasound, and blood test, the doctor said I had PCOS. Frankly, I had no idea what it was. He said I had cysts in my ovaries... okay... so many girls have them...
