Backround:  I've been suspicious that I have PCOS for a few years.  I have almost every symtom (irregular period, eating healthily but still having trouble maintaining a healthy weight, acne, dark skin patches on my thighs, excess hair on my lip/stomach/toes). I also haven't gotten pregnant after about 8 months of not using protection.  I brought this up to my doctor a few years ago, and was tested for thyroid/ insulin level promblems. Both tests came back negative, so my doctor dismissed my concern.  I went back a few years later, and was told the same thing. I was never even given any possibility as to what is wrong with me.   It's soo frustrating.

Questions:  What other tests could be done to diagnose PCOS?  My insurance is wacky and doesn't cover much, so is it possible to be checked at a PP?  What else could these symptoms mean?
