I think everyone else has said what I am thinking, so I won't bother going over it again.

What I will say is, I knew I had PCOS for several years before I got diagnosed. I had all the symptoms etc ... I just did nothing about it because of the sheer embarrassment of the excessive hair and weight gain. It took for my hair to be falling out before I mentally snapped. Thankfully I did.

Possibly Laura just isn't ready to deal with this head on. It is a challenging thing to have both mentally and physically.

Best of luck to you both
