PCOS - Finally Diagnosed

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that, thankfully, is finally becoming more and more recognized. I suffered for years with every single symptom. I was overweight - with no explanation. I had severe acne. I had quite noticeable facial hair. I had cysts on my ovaries… several of which ruptured and caused great pain. And I had incredibly erratic menstrual cycles. When I was finally diagnosed with PCOS, my life changed dramatically. I was put on Glucophage and I saw almost-instant changes. I lost 50 pounds without an effort… simply because my hormone levels were now operating the way they should.

If you suffer from some of these symptoms, please be persistent, even if a doctor tells you that it doesn’t affect you. It is your life…
