PCOD: Your body description could be Polycystic Ovarian Disorder. Usually assoc with weight - especially in abdomen - male like hair distribution and irregular periods. The skin of the ovaries is too thick so the body generates more testosterone (yep even in gals!) to help try to push them out. A lot of PCOD patients have problems with infertility and irregular periods. See your Gynecologist and discuss
