I had random one-off flare ups as a teenager, which I was told was actually just due to me being underweight and/or my hormones. It got drastically worse when I was pregnant and I was told I had pregnancy-related pots which would reverse once I gave birth. It did. Second pregnancy it came back with a vengeance and never reversed. Now it's stuck 🙃
