although i'm not sure why it matters... no, I was not determined to have an irregular ovulation pattern.
The ONLY problems that presented were as mentioned. the hirsuitism, is a classic symptom.
Sigh.
my point was, that, like many diseases, the tests are not always conclusive and one does not need to have EVERY one of them before approaching the doctor or low carb as a solution. |
