I had a account on here before but I’m pretty sure I was shadow banned but I’m a 20 years old and about a year ago I was told that the anterior side of my pituitary gland was slightly enlarged and a few months after that I found out it was due to hormones, so I was told to set up an appointment with an endocrinologist and around late September I was able to go to the doctors I was told to get my LH,FSH, testosterone, cortisol, TSH, T4, prolactin, DHEA-S, ACTH, and insulin growth like factor, and a few days later I got my results and everything seemed normal except my DHEA-S was slightly high as a measurement of 460 μg/dL and around just recently I had a follow up at the end of December and my doctor told me that there was nothing that they could really do but put me on birth control and my symptoms are excess facial hair, weight gain, struggle to lose weight, irregular periods, heavy periods, prolonged periods, and I frequently have pink spotting somewhere between the end of my cycle to somewhere between ovulation or luteal phase and a lot of pelvic pain I’ve had these symptoms since my early teens and I’ve been on birth control and it seems like it doesn’t help and idk what to do at this point I’m worried that once I find out what the issue is it’ll be too late
