I'm looking for a second opinion on treatment options. My current GYN wants to put me back on birth control and I refuse, so she says there's nothing else to do. I currently have a team of GYN, PCP, and dermatologist, my PCP and dermatologist have been more proactive than my gyn. Thanks!

Change your GYN. If you feel a doctor isn't hearing you out on your opinion find a new one. I did. I couldn't be happier.

Definitely change doctors. I was told by the first doctor that there was nothing I could do and I would just have to hope that I could have kids. I saw a couple more and then found one who cared enough to listen. It turns out I also am insulin resistant, have IC and Crohn’s which would probobly have gone undetected for a long time had I not looked around for a doctor who cared. You deserve the best possible treatment and there are so many options out there:)
