Need more info: PCOS is a syndrome of symptoms usually including: irregular periods, (skipping periods, then very heavy typically), hair growth on face, breasts, abdomen, thighs, (often,not always) overweight, pre-diabetes, and typical laboratory findings. Your brief history sounds more like hirsutism. more info would be helpful
