What is PCOS, Endometriosis and Adenomyosis?

I could write everything out in my own words, honestly I don't have time for that when there are sources already written with great information. I will leave you with links to the sites I find factual and informative about these conditions.  They are all worth a read, even if you don't suspect you have it, the information could be passed on to somebody who does.  Do not assume your doctor knows the details or treatments for these, do the research yourself and be your own advocate. I cannot stress being your own advocate enough!!! Birth control is not a cure all like they would like you to believe. I am also including some links to some great facebook resource groups.  Nancy's Nook is where I found the information and encouragement to be brave and seek a specialist for what I am going through. Nancy's nook is like a library of Endometriosis related information.
