u/Ill-Turnover-3671

To start this off I’m going to see my gyno in one week.

Reason for worrying about PCOS: Sudden weight gain of 20 pounds in two month, no period for the last four months, 100% not pregnant. Oh and I’m 23.

I dealt with hormonal acne as a teen and am on spironolactone.

I have a ton of health issues already, the main ones being Narcolepsy, Crohn’s disease, and ankylosing spondylitis, and POTS. (Crohn’s and AS in remission.)

I am considering this as a possibility: I have had mono for 4 months now. (Am now dealing with the post viral immune activation rather than acute infection.) mono is when the missed periods started. Either coincidence? Or cause.
Also: I started seroquel (but a very low dose) and it can cause weight gain but from my understanding it’s because it increases appetite thus caloric intake but I haven’t been eating more.

No new acne, hair loss, or hair growth

I’m kinda really scared cuz my health is already terrible.

So…thoughts? I know no one can daignose me.

I’m 23 on my parents plan with a lot of health conditions. 3 of my medications require step therapy: Rinvoq, Xywav, and Spravato. These are all speciality medications that I cannot get at a regular pharmacy. I had to do step therapy for all of them. We are switching from an HMO to a PPO in 6 weeks. I am very scared they might not cover my meds or make me do step therapy again. Is this a thing?
