What are the symptoms of PCOS?

Most women with PCOS have one or more of: irregular periods or no cycles, acne, oily skin, unwanted hair growth especially on the face or lower stomach, infertility or subfertility (difficulty getting pregnant). Some women with PCOS have little or no symptoms – we look at symptoms, blood tests and an ultrasound of the ovaries to make the diagnosis. Not all women with PCOS have fertility issues.
