Normal, no....normal for PCOS, probably. I was diagnosed with PCOS three years ago and one thing I've found is that often it makes your periods completely unpredictable unless you're taking medication to regulate them. I had only 3-4 periods a year, and they were always very heavy and lasted a long time when they did show up. That was before I went on the pill. Now they come like clockwork, always on the same day, and always end on the same day. The pill might be an option for you if you aren't trying to conceive or don't have a problem with taking hormones. If you do want to get pregnant or want a regular cycle and aren't worried about contraception, you could look into taking metformin/glucophage. It's an insulin-regulating drug, but since insulin resistance is so closely linked to PCOS, it also helps many women with PCOS. Check out www.soulcysters.net, it's a great discussion board for women with PCOS.

four months is just a little lengthy for a interval, inspite of PCOS. In truth, with PCOS you should not be ovulating as a rule and even in any respect which could quit your intervals - however you realize this. If you will have additionally spotted fatigue, nausea, sleepiness, loss of vigour and/or lack of stamina you will be anemic.

Usually the primary line of protection for anemia is a practical iron complement which may also be picked up at your neighborhood grocery retailer or pharmacy and is particularly inexpensive. You particularly will have to have the hassle identified via a general practitioner, deliberate parenthood is as a rule a excellent position to have this performed at a affordable however should you cannot or may not see a general practitioner, you'll take a look at an iron complement.
