I am kind of confused. I was having very irregular periods, and in a period of about 4 years I have gained about 90 pounds. I had blood tests done and I was told that I have very high insulin levels, around 700 (whatever that means). I have to go for more tests and then I am going to start on medication. I guess they are testing hormone levels or something. I am 23 and I am totally clueless about what is going on in my body. I would appreciate some information to help me understand a little better.
