A non-related WLS question, but a weight related one..

A non-related WLS question (I am pre-op waiting for approval), but definitely a weight related one- I am 100% sure that I have PCOS (poly-cystic ovarian syndrom) because I have every single one of the symptoms. For example- Years ago I did not have a period for 3 years, got on a birth control pill and all was well. I went off the pill because I had to have my annual check-up and I had just lost my insurance and well, I had no fundage. So it has now been two years since I have had an exam. This past September my period went away again- that was until April when it came roaring back and has not stopped now for three months and it is EXTREMELY heavy 90% of the time. To the question- I now have insurance again and I have an appointment with a GYN. Those who have been in this situation- were you given a pelvic exam though you were bleeding so heavily? I know some doctor's will with a normal period, but I am in hopes that I will be given an injection (not sure of what) to stop it or at least slow it down and then return for the exam....Any thoughts? THANKS!
