the endocrinologist they finally saw her and turns out she did in fact have abnormalities in her blood work. Its no wonder Black people are more likely to have pcos & endometriosis.

This to me is nuts, 7 is not early, it's CRAZY early. POS racist Doc.

So I looked into this - there are studies available
What the doctor said was certainly not accurate even if the girl had been slightly older.
