I need someone who knows what I am going through. I have been battling for over one year now, a rare form of ovarian. It grows fast, and I have had three surgeries in one year. I am facing chemo for the third time, but at least I have a fresh start thanks to my last surgery a month ago... there is no measurable disease. Anyone out there with Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors?They are rare; the average age of patients diagnosed with these tumors is 25, and only 10% of patients are over 50. About 33% of these tumors produce signs of virilism (infrequent menstrual periods, cessation of menstrual periods before menopause, hoarse voice, and appearance of facial hair....

I was 25 exactly. I have had both ovaries taken out, hopefully this will help. I am going through menopause at age 26. It is so disheartening, I will never have my own children.
