I am worried about my daughter with PCOS being that my entire family have had

most of the symptoms. My gram didn't know she was pregnant until she was 5

months along because she always missed her periods and figured she was just

doing that. Unfortunately one of the drawbacks of going without periods is

that it can cause weight gain and unopposed estrogen is a breading ground for

certain cancers.
