I was diagnosed with PCOS about four years ago; I am now 27 years old. I would like to know if I can participate in the study!

I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2006, and since then I have gotten married and tried to have children with no avail. I have been a social worker for many years and found complete enjoyment working with children, now I have ventured to another avenue, I am a foster Care recruiter. I see so many great children that need a good home and I was just wondering if any of you have considered fostering. You would be helping children and their families. If it has crossed your mind please email me at jataylo80@aol.com. Also I'm in Broward County

Where would you go? I mean, where is this UC Davis School of Medicine and Medical Center? Is it nation or world wide?

Need a few more details for something like this. Especially when its posted on a site that has women from all over the world on it.

Thanks for the info.
