As a young woman I would not do any of the ones that involve drug trials, because they could have unknown later effects on any babies I might wish to have.
Without taking this too off-topic, believe me, you can also have adverse effefcts on your fertility from drugs that have been prescribed especially for you. Im living proof. In fact the more I think about it, the more Im inclined to think that doing a medical trial might in fact have a bit more "forethought " into the participant and thier medical histry than 2 minutes in a gps surgery.
Feeling philosophical this morning, can you tell :rotfl::beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...

As with most things in life I feel that if you arent comfortable then its best to avoid it

I did mine with the local Uni, they advertised on the radio and I wasnt a student at the time. If had had to pay to get some list or on some mailing list then I wouldnt have done it.
They were very professional but I think I fell foul of the "child bearing age" thing as although I asked to be kept informed of any trials I'd be suitable for I never heard anything back from them.:A:A:A:A:A:A0
