Not PCOS but...

I have adrenal hyperandrogenism which is similar, so I thought people with PCOS might relate. Basically what I have is an excess of male hormones (especially DHEAS) coming from my adrenal glands which causes those wonderful symptoms - acne and a lot of hair on my face and abdomen which I've dealt with since I hit puberty. I'm also,severely obese (268 lbs.) which is probably more due to the medications I take for depression and bad habits which I'm trying to change. But I'm finding it hard to lose. So anyway I have a lot of the symptoms and problems of PCOS if not the actual diagnosis.
Looking for friends and hoping people don't mind if I hang out here.

Of course you can hang out here! If the symptoms are similar than the problems, eating choices and general complaints about our diseases will be similar. So welcome and feel free to browse the forums, lots of good advice here.0
