all of my ultra sounds have always been clear
do not
have thining hair
no facial hair
no unusual acne
no belly fat or weight gain
someone suggested that i could have it because of the seemingly non stop menstruation i have had since i was 13.

It is possible to have PCOS and clear ultrasounds (i do!)
Ask your doctor to do a glucose tolerance test, because you could have insulin resistance a symptom of PCOS, and a factor in irregular periods, metformin is used to treat insulin resistance and with some women can make their periods regular.
Have you been to a gyno? they might know what to do.
Have a look at this site, lots of information
