H-PCOS, How to Navigate this?
Posted: Fri Aug 05, 2022 3:25 am
Hello,
I have been told by my consultant that have I Lean PCOS however, I do not have any common symptoms associated with this: no hirsutism, fasting blood sugar level is normal, no weight gain, no thinning hair, no oily skin or acne etc etc. The only issue I have is irregular periods. My Testosterone is Low with High SHBG. Could this be H-PCOS? None of my consultants at the CRM clinic even acknowledge H-PCOS is a thing?
Has anyone heard of this before? Is H-PCOS the same in that I need to find my root cause? I just don't fit into any of these categories as most treatments are dealing with high androgens. If anyone has any advice or in a similar boat I would love to hear from you! This has been a 3 years journey for me in trying to get pregnant so far. Laura UK.
