I have something called PCOS and I felt I needed to post my rant about it.Thanks to everyone for the comments and messages. And a huge thank you to www.projectpcos.org for putting my video on their website.If you are commenting just to tell me what I should do with MY body, get lost. I don´t need your opinion on what how you think I should live MY life.
Girl I just really wanted to give u ur props!!! U are very courageous, I have pcos too and it does suck, but u are so on ur way to beating it!!!!! and what´s the deal w/ Master Cleanser?
I remember how you feel because I was 19 when I got acne for the first time in my life and I gained weight for no reason and my VERY thick gorgeous hair started coming out in clumps. Now at 33, medicated for 9 years, my hair is a little better, my facial hair is somewhat reduced and I don´t have acne at all. I´m still very much overweight, and it just won´t come off. Even though you are depressed and feeling unfeminine, you are gorgeous and you need to know that. We are confined to daily tweezing, shaving, careful haircuts, medication, low glycemic diets and being poked and prodded when it´s time for a kid. But - we have empathy we didn´t have before this kicked in and maybe that´s the gift of PCOS. Hang in there with the rest of us - you are NOT alone.
i hear you!. i was told at 15 that i have PCOS, i am now 24. i have facial hair, alot of excess hair on my arms and legs as well as my bikini area. i am so obese, i never thought i´d get to this weight. but i am and i am depressed all the time. i can´t work or do many excercises because i have carpal tunnel. i recently had my wedding to the most wonderful man! (when i cry, he cry´s with me because he can see what pain i´m in and doesn´t know how to help) sometimes i lock myself in the bathroom coz i think i need to be alone but when i come out he always at the door with his arms open for a hug and tears rolling down his face. it just makes me break down even more to know that i´ve also hurt him and he´ll always be at the door waiting with open arms.
i´ve tried diets. but some didn´t work or i only lost 5 kilos and then stopped. i´ve just found out that my Husbands work college has PCOS. she´s much older... like 40 or something. (her best friend is Craig Lowndes´s wife) well my husband told her i also have PCOS. and she said she controlled it by going on a diet that took out all the carbohydrates, all sugar, and ate lots of protien and veggies. so i am contimplating on seeing a natrupath, they are soo expensive. anyway enough of my gum flapping.
Yeah PCOS is a huge part of our lives, some people have come to terms on how to deal with it. i´m still finding my feet and getting as much info as i can to work out how to.

I have pcos, I have let it rule my life. But now that I am so much informd about it, i getting easier to live with.
Sometimes you just need to accept it, and just deal with it.
I started to cry .. because you talked about the things that us women hate the most of PCOS.. well atleast me.. and each and everything you stated is me.. I have read other but yours hit me like no other... I am now 33 and got diagnosis just last year... but knew there was somthing wrong.. It was not until I meet my Dr. who sent me to a Endo Dr.. not only do I have PCOS.. I have Kobberling Lypodystropy.. where I can not gain weight on the lower of my body.. just the mid section.. which make me feel even more like a man.. I know I am a women.. but all of this make me feel like this and I am proud you came out.. and said this.. it was not hard hearing and it was healing in a way.. Thank you love.
