Hey there! I'm 23 (F) and struggling with my hormones pretty badly. I have PCOS and was seeing what I thought was a very high end hormone doctor via telehealth, but after 3 months of what now feels like experimental meds and dosing I saw no results and she dropped me as a patient because of that🙃 I'm feeling so lost and confused, I have no idea where to start because I REFUSE to just slap the birth control bandaid on and I know that's what 90% of doctors do. I want to have kids someday and I need to understand my body before it's too late.
I had a horrible reaction to progestins (at least that's what she thought was happening) and ever since then I've been having serious issues with major adrenaline rushes and crashes that are coming out of nowhere and completely wiping me out. I went from an employee that calls out 3 times a year to one that calls out 3 times a week. My insulin was double the normal level and DHEA was the highest she had ever seen in someone my age and my CRP is also through the roof... All the classics mixed with a very, VERY spicy nervous system.
Any help is appreciated, I'm so tired of this🤪 honestly ladies chiming in stories or venting or any advice ECT is welcome too!
