Hej hej, I'm a visual communication student based in Sweden and currently working on a project about PCOS. The goal is to raise awareness that this condition exists and to eventually help women help each other getting a diagnosis, since 70% of women with PCOS remain undiagnosed. Based on that I'd be really happy if you could share some indicators that helped you get a diagnosis. 😊

My first indicator was irregular periods! I had no issues with weight until recently, and I have had higher testosterone since I was ~7 years old. Another big indicator was consisently flipped LH/FSH ratios. Of course, after bloodwork, ultrasounds confirmed over 20 subcentimeter follicles on each ovary.
