I'd be willing to say that a few of the celebrities who've been open about their infertility issues probally suffered from PCOS but just didn't come out and give a reason!
The two sisters from the Dixie Chicks Martie and Emily BOTH had to undergo fertility treatments? How common is it that sisters would be infertile unless it was something hereditery like PCOS
Oscar-winner, Emma Thompson suffered a miscarriage in 1997 and was subsequently diagnosed with PCOS. She was able to have
a daughter, Gaia in 1999 at the age of 40. Later IVF attempts failed. She is happy with her daughter, but notes that "there are
thousands and thousands of women like me who can't have children." Recently, Emma and her husband adopted a teenager from
Rwanda.
