Asked By:alexisraymond in Boston, MA

18 years old. Diagnosed with PCOS at 16 weighing 220 pounds. I suffered with nearly every symptom, my boobs were a 38F they are now 36DD well one breast is a 36DD the other is a 36D because of the size difference. I lost a lot of weight but still dont take my medication to treat PCOS and insulin resistance. Will be starting it again. I really suffer from tubular breasts. my boobs look awful especially losing weight. any chance insurance would cover it?
