I do know that WI has an *extremely* active support chapter through the PCOS Association. Lots of women are involved and lots are receiving good care! I agree that knowledgeable doctors are hard to come by but there must be at least a couple in WI. http://chapters.pcosupport.org/us/wisconsin.php lists chapter contact information and upcoming meetings - send an email or go along to a meeting in your area and you should be able to network enough to get some help. It just might be easier! HTH!
