Hi Wendy,

Many of us with PCOS/IR have good Assertive Skills due to high testosterone levels. I don't worry about cancer because we are at greater risk to develop diabetes, strokes and heart attacks. This list and PCOSupport.org are good sources to educate yourself. There is a growing number of Cysters and you wikk find great support within us. Research all you can sowhen you see the Gyno you will have a better understanding of PCOS/IR. It is more than being overweight.
