Dealing with Chronic Pain and PCOS

I recently started going to a gynecologist and she's really helpful. I told her that I've been having symptoms of endometriosis like terrible period pains, GI issues, chronic pelvic pain, etc. My pain got so bad one night that I was screaming and crying and my parents had to drag me to my room. I've also been recently diagnosed with PCOS but I don't really have the symptoms of it like acne and body hair, but she put me on birth control. I feel like the birth control is helping my PCOS but hurting what else is going on with me. Any tips or advice on how to help with this chronic pain?

What are the symptoms of pcos? - Body hair? Where exactly? Breasts? Chin? At what age is that considered normal? - Acne close to cycle? - Extreme pain during ovulation? - Pain with bowel movements? - Heavy bleeding? - Clotting? - Long periods? What about endo... how do the symptoms differ? Thanks 😁

I have horrible period cramps too. It's gotten bad enough that I felt like passing out.
