PCOS (Polyscystic Ovary Syndrome) Isn’t Just “Late Periods.”
freepiks
Pcos:
♨️ It is not ovulating.
♨️ It is pregnancy loss.
♨️ It is cysts covering all over your ovaries.
♨️ It is begging your body to do something but it refuses to do so.
♨️ It is tracking every of your menstrual cycle, symptoms, every flicker of hope, only to be let down again.
♨️ It is fighting so hard to lose weight even when you’re doing everything just right.
♨️ It is being told to just exercise more by those who have no idea your hormones are at war with you.
♨️ It is an elevated testosterone.
♨️ It involves a facial hair you didn’t ask for, an acne that won’t clear, thinning hair that wouldn't stop, and dark patches on your skin you can’t even explain away.
♨️ It is a sudden mood swings that hit like a storm, insulin resistance that makes you feel like you're trapped, and a body that doesn’t feel like yours.
♨️ It is you llooking in the mirror and not recognizing who’s staring back.🤒
♨️ It is watching other women get pregnant without trying,
while you suffer in dead silence.🤦♀️
PCOS is not just a “period problem, it's more than it.”
It is a chronic, physical, and emotional battle that literally takes a toll on your health, your confidence, your purpose, your fertility, and your sanity.

So NO!!!
It is not just a couple of late cycles, It is pain, loss, and grief.
And it truly deserves to be talked about.💪

I never thought of it this way. It's really worth talking about and creating awareness.
Thank you for the insight
I haven't seen this condition/diagnosis locally in my Nursing career but I understand enough that any disorder that effects the integrity and or function of the uterus can not only have far reaching undesirable outcomes but robs any woman of her very being and potential. The emotional pain is often devastating.
Thank you @favouright
