About Me

PCOS stands for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The blogs here will tell you more about it and all informational blogs are public to read. The Cyster's Stories and Other blogs are private due to the fact there is personal and medical information shared between cysters in those blogs. This space was set up to educate, enlighten and encourage those wanting to know more about PCOS. The information here comes from various sources with my opinion thrown in occasionally. It is meant to be a guide only for general information on PCOS and not to replace a physicians diagnosis or treatment.

I'd like to meet:

I don't mind asnwering your questions I just ask that you first read the blogs and see if you can find your answers there. If you don't then by all means, ask them under the most appropriate blog as a comment. I answer all questions and even reply to many comments. If you are uncomfortable asking in public then send it privately. Please add in your message if it is alright for me to add your question as "anonymous asked" and let me reply in a blog for all to see. Someone else may have the same questions or concerns that you do. This way it saves time and I can answer right away.

Questions Answered - If you have a question, this is the place to put it.

If you want to know more about the PCOS Cyster page, then read the blog About the PCOS Cyster Myspace

~~ Thanks
