Screen for Anemia: See your Doctor to rule out anemia. Also, patients with PCOS sometimes have problems with Glucose Metabolism, which can cause some of your other symptoms. An Endocrinology evaluation could be very helpful. Make an appt to see your Physician or OB/GYN to address your concerns and start the initial work up for your symptoms.
