You girls are all so amazing. I am having trouble finding anything positive, except the fact that now that I know, I can be extra careful about taking care of my body. Also, I know early that I might have trouble having kids, so I can take precautions now.
People used to get angry at me for being moody and depressive one minute then fine the next. I couldn't explain it before but now i have been diagnosed the confusion has cleared and i'm really trying to help myself now. So i guess my positive is that people dont judge me now because they know that its my hormones not me xxx
I get to be emotional with an excuse! I also get to lay around with my ice cream and a sappy movie and blame it on my hormones. There are a lot of things that I hate about the PCOS, but I have been able to find out things about myself that I enjoy. I also know that because of it, I am a lot stronger than other girls that may not have these issues to deal with. If I can have serious problems and be happy, then the girls that worry about their hair being frizzy (and have that ruin a whole day!) know nothing.

Ooooh. I love this page. I now actually feel BAD for girls who DONT have PCOS. They're missing out on a lot of things:
1. Big boobs (BC pills)
2. Increased sex drive (testosterone)
3. Larger clit
4. Medical info
5. Cosmetics info
and what not. lol.
i think the best thing is that I learned how to follow a healthy diet and learned how many calories many foods have so now i'm a walking calorie encyclopedia.. hhehehe apart from that i don't think its much of a positive thing but i like how so many ppl found that many positive things about pcop!
I think for me it's the fact that I finally found out that I do in fact have a disorder after yrs of trying to figure out what was wrong with me. I also think one positive thing is that although I am a thin cyster I need to eat a healthier diet which will benefit me in the long run! I think this is a good thread because women with pcos always tend to focus on the negatives, I know it's hard but we have to find the best way to cope..Pcos never goes away but with the right lifestyle changes we all can live a close to normal life!
