Question about PCOS... I think I might have it, and I'm wondering - do you take medicine for it? I read the symptoms, and I'm pretty sure I have it, or something similar. I've never had regular periods, have had issues with gaining/not losing weight, etc, etc. Is it dangerous to not have treatment, or is it something you just kind of... live with? I have NO clue how to tell my mom. We don't talk about personal stuff like that, so if it's not imperative that I get treatment, I'd rather not even tell her. Once I have my license, I can tell my dr. and stuff, but up to this point, my mom comes to the dr. with me and stuff since I can't drive. So idk how to bring it up without it being incredibly awkward. Which is why I'm asking because if I'm gonna die or something w/out medicine, then I'll just bite the bullet and ask to go to a dr.
