Can i have pcos after having children or are we born with it.?

Can develop anytime: This is a disorder of hormonal dysregulation where the androgenic hormones tend to overtake the estrogenic steroids. This can happen at 16, 26, 46 - and everything in between. Many times weight loss or change in diet to avoid certain sugars which induce wide Insulin swings can reduce symptoms. You are not born with pcos - it is brought on be lifestyle/diet/genetics and possible other triggers.
