I've just been diagnosed a couple of months back with PCOS, and I'm finding it hard to cope with some of the symptoms (mainly body hair)
Thought I would join as I heard this was a great place for support from others with PCOS
So, hi! My name is Astrid, I'm 20 and from Sunderland, England |

I know for a lot of women getting diagnosed and on medicine can help a lot. Plus being on here and seeing there are many women going through the same thing makes you feel less alone.
