Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome?

I just get diagnosed with this and I am thoroughly confused about it. I've be around the internet doing research (searching Wikipedia, The Georgia Fertility Institute, JHU Medical School, Web MD, etc.) and they really don't explain that much minus the fact that it make you gain weight (which is ironic since I'm 40 lbs. underweight and other have been). Anywho, anyone here that have it? Can someone explain it?

This is a calmin disease in most woman I was diagnosed more afterwards 2 years ago. What it does is slows down your menstrual cycle and can make it more difficult to take on children. It is like a pimple within your tubes that blocks them up. It can cause counterweight gain, I have gainned rather a bit actually. It can also up your insulin level. Some women have it and never gain consignment.

You must be one of the lucky ones.
