Please don't take this the wrong way...From: Mary (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 28 May 2003 12:06:19 -0500 (CDT)
I have to say to all of you who are trying to get pregnant...I wish you luck but please think of this....I have been just diagnosed (age 37) after suffering for many years. As I grew up I thought of myself as a freak because of all the things wrong with me. Now I have found PCOS and am glad for the diagnosis but am reeling from the fact that since we can trace this back beyond my mother it is probably genetic in my family. I now have the daunting task of explaining to my daughter what I probably have given her. At what point do we say enough is enough. How many new generations have to go thru this??? I understand "medical technology has come so far", and "things aren't as they were when we were young", and "with the knowledge comes freedom"...but she and others still have to suffer. I guess I am still dealing with the stages of grief over all this and I would never wish my daughter not to have been born..but I wonder if I would have made the same choice if I knew what lies of her now.
-- Blessings to you all, Mary
