Girl I am right here with you! I've always been tiny. No matter what I do I can't get over 100 pounds. Because of that, alot of doctors are hesitant to tell me I have PCOS, but I have all the other symptoms so they still stick me to that label. I've been doing lots of research into this lately, and I've found there are other illnesses that can mimic PCOS, but are just a bit different. I recently went in for some more detailed labs that will hopefully bring me some deeper answers. 🤞
