The article was wrong where I'm concerned - my fingers are the same length.

I haven't actually measured, but by looking, my right ring finger does appear longer then my right pointer finger. On my left hand, they are about the same, and the index finger is ever so slightly longer then the ring finger.
Interesting article! Now I wonder if I should ask my mom about testosterone while she was carrying me!

i had already heard of this, but not in relation to pcos - only in relation to levels of aggression in boys exposed to excess testosterone in the womb. i checked both my son and my husband's finger lengths at the time, and found they both had whatever indications that article had mentioned as being proof of exposure in the womb, correlated with being prone to violence (my husband was a violent kid and teenager, but got past it somehow before he met me), and our son is a great little boy, but gets into rages a little more than normal. i always figured our son got his temperment from his father, but, since i have excess testosterone, and i can tell the women in my husband's family all appear to have pcos, it makes sense that it might be more exposure to testosterone from us mothers, than simply paternal genetics. or could be both
VERY WEIRD....on my LEFT hand, my ring finger is longer than my index. On my RIGHT hand, they are the same length.

I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on
And learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
I wanna leave something here
Go out on a ledge, without any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah, I wanna be running

Ok I'm a big oddball. On my right hand my ring finger is noticibly longer than the index finger. But on my left hand my INDEX finger is noticibly longer than my ring finger. Weird. I guess I'm half man half woman? LOL!
Weird... on me the article was VERY true. I never knew I was such a manly man!
Joking apart, it's a fact that a majority of women with pcos do have a body that has a lot more in common with men than other women do, It doesn't mean we're not women -- but we're women with some features which are normally thought of as "male only." The fact that I've a beard (which I shave every day) and the fact that I've very little breast development is simply a reflection of the fact that I been exposed to testosterone at male levels from the earliest stages of development -- as witnessed by my long ring fingers. I'm definitely heterosexual, happily married and have a family. But at 21 if I didn't wear my hair long and didn't shave, I'd most certainly have been taken for a guy. And at 50 I'm becoming more masculine again. What's normal for most women isn't normal for me.
VERY WEIRD....on my LEFT hand, my ring finger is longer than my index. On my RIGHT hand, they are the same length.
I don't know if I would be the best canidate for this study though. I shattered the growth plate in my right wrist and my hand never grew after the 8th grade. So one of my hands is MUCH smaller than the other one. So I know I wasn't fully developed.
