My dertamologist thinks I have PCOT...or something that sounds like that. Could !
Question: I got a blood test and an ultrasound. I have a cyst as I have a history of them. I do get very irregular periods and they should be regular. I do have mild acne which we have been trying to control with creams and pills for over two years, but it has not been fully effective. What is true?
