Hello Willowjana:
I can understand why you would feel frustrated after living with PCOS for eleven years, but it sounds like you are also wanting to move forward with your life and are seeking resources to help. If so, you've come to the right place.

I'm going to list some articles that you may find helpful in learning more about managing your situation, and invite you to ask questions, submit information, just do whatever you feel is going to help you.

In terms of your job loss, there are many support groups in communities today as well as online groups that can help you. As with any health condition, adjusting to the changes that come with job loss have been shown to be easier to handle and more successful when job seekers work with others instead of going it alone. One of the best websites for assistance is http://www.job-hunt.org/ Look for the drop box on the upper left side of the home page. There you can enter in the state where you live and find resources specific to your area.

Thanks so much for writing to us, and we're looking forward to hearing more from you, and learning about your progress.

Take good care,
Pat

How to Cure PCOS Naturally - Learn How to Cure PCOS Naturally with Managing PCOS for Dummies.-

Sufferers of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome(PCOS) will often consider a natural treatment for PCOS. For some this may be because they have previously used or always been open to alternative medicine, but for most it is because conventional medicine just doesn't seem to have the answers they are seeking

Natural treatments (or complementary therapies or alternative therapies) are also aften called holistic medicine because they aim to treat the person/patient as a "Whole", mind, body and spirit, and to understand everything that is going on with that person.

If you are looking for a natural way to eliminate your PCOS, you should take a look at "Managing PCOS for Dummies" by Gaynor Bussell.

Hey Willowjana,

You will get your life back. I struggled with PCOS for a long time and have taken steps in the past year to feel better -- and I do. As one of the other posters mentioned, natural health is a good way to deal with PCOS in a holistic/whole body approach. Hereis a good set of PCOS articles from Women to Women...Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
