Apparently not. PCOS is not the only cause of hirsuitism and related symptoms, Cushings, for example, also produces similar symptoms. Ten years ago I was thoroughly checked out by a Professor of Endocrinology, he told me I didn't have PCOS. More recently, I saw a local endocrinolgy specialist. $1500 in lab tests later, she told me, you don't have PCOS, you don't even have metabolic syndrome, you just must have a bad gene. Don't you love that, when they don't know what you've got, they blame your genes. I am steadily improving through taking NAC, cleansing and changing my diet and look forward to the day I am totally healed. Anyway, best regards to you on your quest for health.
