The link between PCOS and mental health disorders in women
Women are usually diagnosed with PCOS after they start trying to have a baby and find that they're experiencing fertility problems. It can take up to a year without conceiving before your doctor will order tests to see if PCOS is present. While PCOS may not be diagnosed until later in life, once it is, many people recognize the symptoms as something they have been dealing with for years, often since they were teenagers.
