I have been suffering with this disease since I went through puberty. I am now 45 years old. I have only had one surgery and it didn't do much good. The boils will show up in one area for a few months (when I get my period) and then will shift to a different area of my body. It almost completely went away while I was pregnant with my son and came back after I gave birth. It was awful while I was pregnant with my daughter. I absolutely agree that it is hormonally linked and an endocrinologist may be more helpful than a dermatologist. Anything that will reduce inflammation in your body will be helpful.
