PCOS diet...
Here's an article about foods to eat if you suffer from PCOS:

And here's an article claiming that Victoria Beckham suffers from PCOS and ate those foods in order to conceive (her dd):

Her doctors also advised her to gain weight and change her diet. Victoria has taken her doctor's advice and has changed her diet to include more carbs and is reportedly eating foods and taking supplements to aid in conceiving a daughter.

OK, now clearly we do not know if this is accurate information. She could have conceived her DD through IVF/MS/PGD or naturally, we do not know. But let's just say that this is true, that she ate this diet for PCOS and conceived a girl. Do you think some of the foods are "girl diet" friendly such as red raspberry leaf tea? Or others such as keeping your blood sugar stable?baby girl 23 wks.

My guess is the PCOS thing is a ruse so that she can see fertility specialists and nobody will suspect her of doing IVF PGD for gender?-- she certainly does not fit the PCOS stereotype... and 34 I think is still not considered old in terms of fertility warnings unless he has some other condition if she were over 35 it might make more sense.

I do think this was just a cover for going HT.
But, let's just say for the sake of argument that it is true. IF she has PCOS it would be the atypical type.
Non-Classical PCOS, or PCOS variants:
This subtle condition is far more prevalent than the classical form of PCOS and patients present with some of the features, but not all. Specifically, these patients may be thin but still manifest the aspects of classical PCOS. Women with PCOS appear to be at risk of developing other health problems during their lives including:
Insulin resistance and diabetes
Lipid abnormalities (cholesterol and triglycerides)
Sleep apnea
Endometrial cancer
...Anyway, that would explain why she has 3 boys (high testosterone and high blood sugar) despite being rail thin, and if she was given drugs to help with lowering her blood sugar, like Metformin, Clomid to help her ovulate, and spironolactone to lower her testosterone, she very well could have conceived a girl completely "naturally" because those drugs sway pink.
I would think that far more likely than that she "quit eating refined foods" and "started drinking raspberry leaf tea" and that's how she cured her PCOS. Interestingly, raspberry leaf tea helps your uterine lining and may have been very helpful had she been on Clomid. Overall, it sways blue, but if a person WAS on Clomid, it might be a good addition to help with the lining.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Yes, I too totally think this PCOS thing is a ruse for her doing IVF/PGD (or MS included since it said she went to docs in Los Angeles). Just wanted to post this for arguments sake too.
I remember reading about red raspberry tea leaf when you wanted to induce, naturally, or move yourself into labor.baby girl 23 wks.

Hmmm...she really doesn't fit with the majority of PCOSers...but I actually know 2 women who are rail thin and have it. So...maybe? but could totally be a smoke screen for going high tech.

The PCOS was just a cover for the IVF but Victoria does have PCOS, she has claimed this since before she had children. She has just never had fertility issues with it. Pretty much like me. I am quite thin too, but I havent always been.

Interesting. I don't think we will ever know for certain, unless she announces it.

2 weeks before. Keep in mind that many people think they actually sway blue and WANT to be on them for their sway. OPK are fallible. We use them because it's the best technology we have, but...
