Have you heard of PCOS? Do you or someone you know have experience with PCOS?
PCOS stands for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. It is a complex hormonal and metabolic disorder. The common symptoms include ovarian cysts, irregular menstrual periods, and excess androgen levels. The cause of this disorder is unknown, but is believed to have genetic and environmental influences. According to the medical industry, there is no cure.
In this episode, we share our experience living with PCOS, share resources for what has helped us, and reflect on advocacy for women's health.
We felt inspired to do this because we felt it would be helpful to share different perspectives. Dagny has been healing and managing her PCOS symptoms for 13 years. Damali has started exploring options to manage her PCOS symptoms this year. So, we are able to share what it is like being at the beginning and after the middle of this journey.
As a disclaimer, we do mention blood, pain, and suicide in this episode. It's not gruesome, but please be advised.
We hope you feel seen and encouraged. This is an important topic for all genders to understand, regardless if you have ovaries.
Let us know what you think of this episode.
