I love how they zoom in when she says, "Yeah, I'm at the FAT FARM." Ahh... What a good friend. :)

10% of women have this but so many doctors act like you're a pest and imagining things when you talk to them about the PCOS problems.

I have been battling with PCOS for 10yrs now and it is really hard. It breaks my heart to know that I may not have any children when all I want to do is have them. I'm an identical twin and my twin doesn't suffer with this disease. She has a son whom I love to death. When I look at him I wonder what it would be like to have a baby. It's just not fare.

It's not really all that easy. You would be surprised at how many illnesses have the very same symptoms. It becomes a process of elimination.

@xsparklez I hope for the best for you, i`m only 19, but having the though of never being able to bear a child frightens me and i also have PCOS.

It gets to me how she was dismissed by her other physicians, but all that doctor had to do was look up her symptoms in a textbook for a diagnosis...

Yeah the excess hair and weight are just horrible. As soon as I hit 11 it got me

All docters should be docters because they want to genuinly help people the best way possible. There should not be docters because of the cash or profit drive - because that means the patient comes in second place, and money at first, and that is NEVER a good sign.
