&& I really have no idea of what your condition entails, but I do recall a high school friend of mine who worked out a lot and had problems with ovulating - she'd rarely get her period and had to take something eventually. The doctors also told her that her muscle/fat ratio was much too high on the muscle side - for some reason it seems women need a certain amount of fat to cycle normally. Strange, isn't it?

Again - have no idea if this helps, but hope you can find something worthwhile in there ;-).

good luck, Elizabeth
