After initial research, I realised that there were different types of OCD, such as childhood-onset OCD, pre-natal OCD and post-natal OCD. I have therefore decided to modify my question slightly so that I am now investigating the significance of biological factors in the development of OCD in childhood-onset OCD in order to further focus my question.
After emailing many experts in this field, I finally received one reply from Dr Judith Rapoport, a expert in Child Psychiatry. In this reply she replied that she would be happy to answer my questions, however, she advised me to first consult her book, 'The Boy Who Couldn't Stop Washing'. I have ordered this book, and when I have finished reading it, I will then ask Dr Rapoport if she would be happy to answer a few questions.
