Hey guys
Just 2 months ago I was a 32DD/E with a 25 inch waist. I'm 27 and this is the figure I had since I was 20. But 2 months ago I caught a virus which took a bit of a toll on my immune system and since then my stomach is bigger (I have love handles now and rolls of fat which I've never had) and my breasts have sagged and gone down 2 cup sizes!!! I'm devestated! My only other symptom is that I have less hair on my head than before and possibly slightly hairier on my body.
I went to the doctor last week for a blood test and my DHEAS and another androstenedione are much higher than they should be (could be PCOS or adrenal tumour he is going to check), my cortisol is too low in the morning and too high at night and I'm borderline hypothyroid. I don't know if any of these things were present before 2 months ago though so it might have nothing to do with this but I thought it was worth a mention.
Does anyone have any suggestions of what could have caused this and how I can go back to my shape before? I know I shouldn't care but its been such a dramatic change in such a short space of time.
