Hello
I'm not LTTC but I'm hoping that you lovely ladies might be able to give me advice !
Basically, I was on the pill ever since I started my periods, as they were really heavy etc.
We came off BC and were lucky enough to fall PG 6 weeks later.
I had my son 5 months ago and haven't had a period since.
Have been in touch with my GP about it & now they're getting concerned.
I'm not breastfeeding, which I know can delay things.
GP has done tests on FSH & TSH -- normal and we're waiting on results for Prolactin & LH.
GP has now requested tests on my Testosterone levels, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin and a pelvic ultrasound. He didn't say specifically what he was looking for, but after having a look on the internet it looks to me that he now might be testing for PCOS.
Are these the tests that are done for determining PCOS?
I'm worried I've always had issues with my cycles but that the pill has masked it for years.
Can anyone help??? xxx
