Hello,

Hair changes may be due to PCOS. The headache and depression are not typical of it though. On the other hand, if you would like to rule it out you can have the testosterone level in the blood checked. If it is high then you very likely have PCOS.
Depression can also be a separate diagnosis and may not have any underlying condition, especially if you have ruled out thyroid problems. So if the test comes out normal consider getting treated for depression.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj, General & Family Physician
