Carolyn, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughters difficulties-and at such a young age. I completely understand though. I am thirty years old and I was diagnosed with PCOS six years ago. I am taking a soy based nutritional weight loss product. I had just about given up hope when a friend of mine introduced me to this product. I have lost 35lbs so far! It has given me hope again! :o) I can also say I have regular periods when I wasn't before. I am still not ovualting but the fact that I have periods regularly is good I know. These product haven't helped with the unwanted hair I have on my chin but they have helped me with my hypoglycemia-the symptoms have disapeared. I feel really good about putting something healthy in my body. If you would like specifics feel free to e-mail me.
-- Best Wishes,
