Hi I too come from the UK just wanted to know cathy, did u consult for the symptoms of pcos or treatment with a view to pregnancy? It seems that as I have no desire to become pregnant Doctors do not want to treat pcos, was it worth going private (and was it expensive). I am a staff nurse and I am finding it difficult to be taken seriously, too much knowledge and all that. infor would be grately appreciated

Hi Caroline, I'm a UK girl too! Waiting on the NHS takes forever. I had a four month wait, so decided to pay privately. Not only do you have to wait for the initial consultation, but you'll have to wait again for the tests. (sorry!) In the meantime gather information, and go armed with it. That way you are less likely to be fobbed off, don't accept going on bcp as the be all and end all, and ask for it to be treated rather than masked. Keep us all posted with how you get on.
