I'm sorry, but for those of us who inherited PCOS from their mothers or have others in their families with PCOS, can I just interject a big fat DUH over this article?

My mom had it, her sister has symptoms, their mom had it, I have it. I have a second cousin who has it. It's all over my family, yet I have had several doctors who told me it's not inheritable. I guess they finally figured out what I knew when I was first diagnosed!

I have been wondering this myself for quite a while. It is about time that they realize that what we have been telling them isn't bogus.

Thanks for sharing the article with us.

LOL on the Big Fat Duh...I'll have to remember that one! I still get really upset when people, (especially doctors) imply that somehow we did this to ourselves through overeating, laziness, etc. I don't mean to imply we are powerless to change our health, but I've always known I was born with a metabolic disadvantage.

Thanks for sharing!

I agree - I know it runs through my mother's side of the family, but no one wants to listen~!
