we have been TTC for over a year. i have had my period once in the last 9 months and thats because the doctor gave me provera. I have gained weight so is it possiable i could have PCOS? if not what else could it be? i went to the doctor he told me he doesnt seem like PCOS...should i actaully go there and ask to be tested for it?
I'm 26, 5'11 and 145 pounds. no extra hair growth (like facial)

Sounds like PCOS is a possibility given that you're increasing in weight. You can look up a post on this site I started on PCOS, but if your blood work shows a slightly elevated Testosterone level, then you would qualify given that you're missing periods...Guess it would be wise to be tested for it. Since you also go through more than 6 months without a period, consideration should also be given for an endometrial biopsy.
