Guest guest Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 I was diagnosed with this about 10 years ago, only I didn't remember the name. The doctor even let me see the cysts on ultra-sound. He said the pain I felt was when they ruptured during ovulation. cyn At 01:54 AM 8/22/2004 -0700, Alenna wrote: >Deb, > PCOS is Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 I have lost an ovary due to this and nobody even bothered to tell me what it was. Now I am truly amazed (and eternally blessed) that I was actually able to have my kids.
