Fund more research and awareness for polycystic ovary syndrome

Closed 52 signatures

What the petition asks

People in the UK are being fobbed off left, right and centre about Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

The Government must fund more research, including looking for a cure, and to provide more information to medical professionals about the condition.
I personally have suffered from PCOS for the past 5 years, this is when I was diagnosed. Uncertain as to whether I could have children & being given the wrong types of medication resulted in me not having a period for 3 years. After fortunately bearing my child, I did not have a period for 5 months. I then had a period which has been ongoing for 8 months. I have been referred for a hysteroscopy however, I am still on the waiting list & all the GP wants to do it give me the pill which is wrong.
