my names Tasha and i was diagnosed with CAH at the age of 3. Now that I am 16, ive been wanting to do some research on this disorder. I myself, have been going through some rough situations. I've been getting depressed, and more emotional as the years progress. I wonder if most teens out there with CAH have a problem with their weight as I do. I went through a period where i would gain up to 15-20 lbs. in just three months. I barely have an appetite though, and my weight would increase amazingly. Now, Ive been just a tad more physical and lost 10 lbs. without necessarily dieting. Not only is my weight an issue, but my skin as well. I break out all on my face and partially on my back, shoulders, and chest. I also have been getting more excessive hair on my face as well as body. I feel so depressed due to all of these things...especially now that i have a boyfriend(who doesnt kno about me with CAH). I need advice and help from those who can explain to me a little more on this disorder. Thanx
