Default Can you have PCOS even after you have had children?

I'm 33 and I have three children, aged 13, 7 and 7. It was really easy to get pregnant both times. I was really fertile with the twins. I believe I still am, but I am not trying to have any more. I asked my doctor if I could have PCOS because I have some of the symptoms: Insulin resistance, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, male pattern baldness, skin tags, heavy babies (9.6 lb. and 5lb. 9oz./6 lb. 5 oz., [12 lb. together]), acne like I never even had in high school all along the jawline and on the neck, too. Also, my periods seem to be happening closer and closer together when they used to be every 28 days like clockwork. And they are heavier. My doctor (a woman) said I couldn't have PCOS because I have had children in the past. Is this true? Has anyone been diagnosed with PCOS with the symptoms I have? Thanks in advance.
