HS And PCOS
A myHSteam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I was diagnosed with HS last year (but had symptoms for a few years before that) and was just diagnosed with PCOS today. Anybody else have both? Is there a connection? I’d be happy to hear experiences.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome. Causes high testosterone, acne, excess body hair, irregular periods

Yup! PCOS makes the HS a lot worse. I got some relief years ago with the ortho evra patch. I'm not sure if they still make it. But I had relief! 😊
