I don't see why weight would be an issue for Oprah to avoid addressing PCOS on her show. There are many faces to PCOS and some of us are thin, fluffy and anywhere in-between. The symptoms of PCOS aren't always caused by weight and the problem lies in trying to break the vicious cycle of symptoms, a lot of times caused by insulin resistance. Heck, if she just did a show on that, I'm sure more people would become aware of PCOS too.
BTW, I've always hated Rush Limbaugh, but after reading that comment he made toward the Dixie Chicks struggling with infertility, I loathe him!
