BPES and Premature Ovarian Failure

[Guest guest]

Hi All

It's been some time since I last posted on the site and I'm amazed at

the amount of members there are.

I took part in the study of BPES by Dr de Baere in Belgium (I live in

the UK) and was told that it was difficult to say which type of BPES

I had due to having a 'deletion' in my DNA. It was always thought

that I was Type II as my mother also has BPES and has had three

children.

I found out last week that I have Premature Ovarian Failure and am

now going through the menopause at 38, which indicates that I'm

actually Type I. As you can imagine, this has come as a bit of a

shock. I wonder if there is anyone else on the group that also has

POF as I would be grateful for any advice on HRT etc.

Many thanks.

Anita
