What is the longer term prognosis for women in their early 20's with Schizoaffective disorder? I am asking as I have this condition and I am hoping to gather more data about my particular demographic, in order to give me a better idea as to what they are doing, as well to lead me to how those of us with this condition fare later in life. 

What is the long-term prognosis for schizoaffective disorder?
Note, this is not my area, and not medical advice. If you need help with this you should consult an appropriately trained health practitioner.

To consult the scientific literature, do a search like "schizoaffective disorder prognosis" on Google Scholar.

For example, Robinson et al (1999) provide some relevant empirical data. The sample was 50% female and had a mean age of 25.6 (SD=6.3) years. To quote their abstract:


  Background  We examined relapse after response to a first episode of
  schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
  
  Methods  Patients with first-episode schizophrenia were assessed on
  measures of psychopathologic variables, cognition, social functioning,
  and biological variables and treated according to a standardized
  algorithm. The sample for the relapse analyses consisted of 104
  patients who responded to treatment of their index episode and were at
  risk for relapse.
  
  Results  Five years after initial recovery, the cumulative first
  relapse rate was 81.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 70.6%-93.2%);
  the second relapse rate was 78.0% (95% CI, 46.5%-100.0%). By 4 years
  after recovery from a second relapse, the cumulative third relapse
  rate was 86.2% (95% CI, 61.5%-100.0%). Discontinuing antipsychotic
  drug therapy increased the risk of relapse by almost 5 times (hazard
  ratio for an initial relapse, 4.89 [99% CI, 2.49-9.60]; hazard ratio
  for a second relapse, 4.57 [99% CI, 1.49-14.02]). Subsequent analyses
  controlling for antipsychotic drug use showed that patients with poor
  premorbid adaptation to school and premorbid social withdrawal
  relapsed earlier. Sex, diagnosis, obstetric complications, duration of
  psychotic illness before treatment, baseline symptoms, neuroendocrine
  measures, methylphenidate hydrochloride challenge response,
  neuropsychologic and magnetic resonance imaging measures, time to
  response of the initial episode, adverse effects during treatment, and
  presence of residual symptoms after the initial episode were not
  significantly related to time to relapse.
  
  Conclusions  There is a high rate of relapse within 5 years of
  recovery from a first episode of schizophrenia and schizoaffective
  disorder. This risk is diminished by maintenance antipsychotic drug
  treatment.
