HOW TO FIND OUT IF YOU WERE EXPOSED

If you were born between 1938 and 1971, ask your mother (or other relatives who might know her pregnancy history) if she took any medications during her pregnancy, or if she had any problems such as bleeding, miscarriage, premature birth, or diabetes. Find out if your mother can get her medical records to see if she took DES. If not, perhaps you can. You can find out how to get medical records by calling the DES hotline closest to you or a DES organization listed in the resources section.
