Thank you to everyone who responded! I've heard of a couple of these
doctors. the one I used to see prior to my quad pregnancy was in St
Peters, however, I don't really trust him anymore. Plus, he just put me
on the pill...didn't really explain what was wrong with me. I want to
see someone who will treat my condition...not just tell me to take the
pill. I am not looking to get pregnant right now. I just had a baby
May 11, 2002 after losses in 2001. I just want to use the right birth
control for PCOS (it's easier to get pregnant right after a
pregnancy...even with my previous fertility problems). Thanks again!!
