• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I am married, and was married when diagnosed... my PCOS was discovered in 1982 when I was looking to find out why I wasn't conceiving. Back then, it was only an infertility diagnosis and not a health concern to be treated. This is something I have recently pursued --- with much difficulty, but finally making progress. Ironically, my daughter was also diagnosed with PCOS after having a baby when her baby weight wouldn't come off, and she broke out in horrible acne; I looked at her and said, "Other than the fact you didn't have trouble conceiving, just looking at you I would guess you had PCOS! You might mention it to your doctor at your check up..." She did, the doctor found it "interesting", and she came away with the diagnosis and a prescription for metformin.

I was diagnosed after I was married. But the symptoms really didn't show up until I stopped taking birth control. I had been taking birth control since I was 15 to correct my periods. Guess I had it all along, just didn't know it.
