The symptoms don't match. But thank you Chinadoll.

Then go your GP. Perhaps you don't have. You generally need some sort of scan to have it diagnosed so reading about the symptoms isn't particularly helpful if you're concerned.

Why do you want to know? What are your symptoms?

Too big a topic to discuss without a prompt, or a clue.

Ovarian Cysts and PCOS are two different conditions. I had ovarian cysts when I was 17 and the most obvious symptom I had was excruciating abdominal pain. My eldest sister has also had them multiple times and hers burst on a couple of occasions resulting in hospital admission and surgery.

Have a look at this page to see if you have any of these symptoms:

yes defo have a scan if you haven't, it'll be able to tell them if you have. Not having periods is a common symtom and having bad skin and excess hair on your face and legs is another. It can be treated with a certian contraception pill but not sure which one but your doctor will be able to tell you.

it could be pcos i got told after i had a scan. I was having problems getting pregnant and went to the docs who booked the scan. I found looking at the nhs direct website helpful. Hope this helps
