Spring: About that little girl you're trying to help: My only suggestion is to first convince the parents to bring her to a doctor. Or give them something to read. The other thing is to give the girl something to read. Depending on her age, she can do things on her own. For instance, if she reads about PCOS and sees that she has alot of the symptoms, then she can convince her parents about things.

I do have questions though: What's her diet like? How are her periods? What symptoms does she have other than weight gain? How old is she?

One baby step at a time. Some people are not willing to open their eyes!
