PCOS - Verity

Hi Ladies

I am new to babyexpert.com, recently married I am now looking into improving my chances of having a baby. Having been diagnosed with PCOS just under 2 years ago, I know that I am going to battle. The thought of not having a baby breaks my heart.

Anyway I have come across a charity called Verity and I am thinking of joining, but I just wanted to check that it is a legitimate organisation. I know this sounds so untrusting but I think that this is such an emotional topic that could easily be exploited.

I look forward to getting to know many of you through chatting together.

  • never heard of it!
  • Hi Ladies

    Verity seems to be an organisation that helps women with PCOS. They fund research and hold conferences etc.

    Since posting this topic I read a really good article in the Holland and Barrett 'Healthy' magazine which recommended them. So I have now joined.

    Their website is: http://www.verity-pcos.org.uk/

    Here is hoping.

    My doctors don't seem to be doing much to help me - I think I am going to request being sent to a specialist
  • hey hun (crashing from due in june) ...I was sort-of diagnosed with PCOS (long story!) and used the Verity message board quite often as well as BE...its a lovely place and they are registered charity too - you'll get lots of help and support on there too! xx
  • Hi there
    I've had PCOS for years and Verity is one of the best sites for advice etc.
    I've also got a few good books on the subject which are full of lots of useful info, I've read everything going so if you've got any questions just shout up!
  • I used Verity lots. It's a really good site x
