PCOS ?????

I hear about PCOS all the time but how do you know if you have it? What exactly is it? I defintely have infertility issues. I have a 15 year old daughter and have tried to get pregnant again since she was about 3 years old with no luck. I am now almost 2 years post op and having a lot of trouble getting the remaining 70 lbs off plus I have seriously tried to get pregnant since last October using home ovulation testing kits. My periods are showing up regular each much though they never were before the WLS and the testing kits are showing ovulation each month but no luck so far. I will be 40 on the 24t of this month and I am worried that too soon it will be too late. any advice is appreciated. Tami

hi there... first off you get diagnosed from your gyn.   PCOS.  Polycystic ovarian syndrome.  Its when cysts cover your ovaries and prevent ovulation.  It can cause acne, facial hair, sparatic periods or cease of periods... etc.    Have you discussed these issues with your gyn?  If not make an appt.    take care and good luck...
