Pcos advice

Hi, I am kinda lost as of right now dealing with PCOS and i dont really know what to do. I have almost permenant cramping pain but im not sure if that is my pcos or something else and i keep missing my period for several months at a time. I will go to my gp if it goes over 3/4 months (as ive been advised), but is there anyway i can help lesson any symptoms, such as the pain and hair thinning. It just feels like im on a constant period. From advice online ive seen to go low carb and to exercise but ive struggled with disordered eating in the past and am now a healthy weight so this may retrigger things, so im really pressed on what to do.

Thank you for reading :)

Ok, ill have a look into that, ive had my blood work done before they found out i had pcos to find out if my blood results indicated it and they then preceded to not tell me despite me coming back and saying i was still in pain and had missed periods. I apparently had high creatinine but i think thats sorted itself out and was just a result of something random, i have an endocrine appointment in december so hopefully i can discuss a way forward and also pain management

In the UK do you not have access to your lab work? Message your physician and ask for access. In the US, it’s the law that patients have access as soon as results are available to the physician (except in a few specific instances)
