Hello! I've been experiencing brain bog, extreme fatigue, sleep issues, missed periods (for over 4 consecutive months), and difficulty losing weight. Which doctor should I see to help with all of this?

I previously had an endocronologist who said I may have PCOS and insulin resistance, but she didn't really help with actually providing a diagnosis or remedies for the symptoms. So not sure if I should visit a different endocronologist or another type of specialized doctor. Thank you in advance.

Have you also taken a pregnancy test? These are also symptoms of pregnancy. Otherwise, seek a second opinion with another doctor. I hope you’re able to figure out what’s going on with you and begin to feel well again.

I am not active, so definitely not pregnant.

Thank you for your comment and help!

I have PCOS. I believe my symptoms are more mild but I was diagnosed after an ultrasound and a cyst popped. I take ovasitol now to balance my hormones. An OB can diagnose you with PCOS.

Are you in consulting rn? You could have high cortisol levels. How’s your diet and exercise? I would just go to my OB or message to ask for an ultrasound or blood work - the blood work is cheaper and they can see if you have insulin resistance, it can also test your thyroid levels. To be diagnosed with PCOS you only need 2-3 indicators, mine were cysts on the ovary and irregular periods.

I’m fine. I have never really felt any symptoms, I’m not overweight, etc. Exercising can actually help energy levels. It’s hard to get there but it can induce a serotonin release which can help. You can start with a 30 min walk then maybe the next day it’s 30 min @ the gym. You just need 150 min of exercise/ week.

For your diet, consider talking to a nutritionist.

See your primary and they’ll make the referral.

Everything is making my anxiety and overthinking worse.
