My doctor diagnosed me with PID and PCOS but im not so sure?
About a year and a half ago i went to an OB/GYN with severe pain in my pelvic area and ovaries she did a sonogram of my overies and said i had PCOS {Polycystic Ovary Syndrome} and PID {Pelvic Inflamitory disorder}. I have recently changed my primary care physician and she wants to also be my GYN and during my first visit she said she wasnt so sure about the diagnosis my old GYN gave me so i looked up the symptoms and I dont have quite a few of them.
PCOS symptoms i DONT have:
?infrequent menstrual periods, no menstrual periods
?insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes
?high cholesterol
?patches of thickened and dark brown or black skin on the neck, arms, breasts, or thighs
?skin tags, or tiny excess flaps of skin in the armpits or neck area
?sleep apnea—excessive snoring and times when breathing stops while asleep
?abnormal hair growth and distribution.
PID symptoms i DONT have:
?Painful or difficult urination
?vomiting
?spotting throughout the month
{not sure yet on the infertility, weve tried a few times with no success but Im too scared what will happen to my self image if we try hard with no results}
So my question to women with PID or PCOS is.. do you think i should get a second opinion or are these symptoms uncommon.. or like really what symptoms do you experience?

Not every woman has the same symptoms when they have pcos. you may have only 1-3 symptoms whereas another woman have 7-8 symptoms. They make that list and give examples of what most women experience with pcos. your symptoms dont have to exactly match everyone elses. If you feel like you got a bad opinion, go ahead and get a second opinion. It may make you feel less freaked out. My best friend since kindergarten got diagnosed with PCOS in late july said that she could never have kids. or if she did get prego, she would miscarry, which she had done twice before. She conceived not too long after the diagnoses and is doing well. Due in early may with a healthy baby
about 9 months ago my obgyn took a blood test and said that i had an under active thyroid and pcos then a few months ago i had an ultra sound and they said that i did not have pcos and i am leaning toward the doctor that did the ultra sound since they saw what my ovaries looked like but im still going to get a third opinion so i would get a second opinion
i have pcos and i don't have some of the symptoms you have listed above because you don't always have all of them x maybe you should get checked out again x
