Default Polycystic ovaries anyone???

Hi guys

I have PCOs....just found out my file has been passed to the dreaded Med Dept. I have already been asked to provide a DR letter of explanation, which I have done.....saying basically that I have no side affects and I not require medication....

Im a little shocked as Fertility treatment sould I need it or decide i even want to persue it would be a private cost anyway

Does anyone have any experience of PCOs at the times of immi medicals?

bummer!

Hi

I have PCOS and it was stated on my medical by the DR who did it in NZ but it never got referred!

Hope someone else can help - good luck

True but cysts can swell and burst (some repeatedly/monthly) leading to immense pain and possibly require treatment/surgery to remove irrespective of the fertility angle, it may be that that would concern them. If your consultant has stated no side effects then all should be good but NZIS will want their Dr to make that call, they won't do it themselves.

Hi
yes cysts can burst etc....but my dr stated no treatment, no meds nothing.....I only discovered them by mistake no side affects whatsoever! guess i was just hoping that my general good health and age would be considered......OH had knee op last year for sporting injury (cruciate tear) te med doc recommended MORE surgery to correct...we got GP letter it was long and pretty hard to understand in its terminlolgy....but our case officer seemed to understand that lol.....an signed it off internally....that is in fact an ongoing medical issue crazy really.

P.S

My HHHHH key doesn't type well.....
