PCOS AWARENESS MONTH IS FEBRUARY! HAVE YOU TOLD ANYONE SOMETHING ABOUT IT?
My poem dedicated to this month:
"You are not alone with this"
"There are others just like you."
-That's not what my problem is,
I worry about the ones who don't have a clue.
The ones who are treated with just birth control
The ones that are told that BC should "Fix It"
I worry about the women unaware,
The doctors didn't tell them they were insulin resistant.
The doctors treat them as if they don't know or care,
They fail to mention the unwanted hair...
Or, the bald spots that will appear on your head,
They just tell you it's life, instead.
They didn't tell them their face would break out,
I found out the hard way, no doubt.
They didn't mention the excessive weight gain,
Or the unbearable abdominal pain.
Did they mention the sleep apnea at night?
Or, when you want to have a child - the fertility fight?
Did they mention the fact that your cycle will hardly come alone?
You'll have to take medication to bring it on.
Now, get in your car - and start up your engine,
For the ride that your doctor failed to mention!
Pick up some nair, tweezers, or razors on the way,
Because you'll be shaving your face, everyday!
Exercise right and slack off the sweets
Or the scale will read higher week after week!
Now that you know a little about PCOS, it's your duty, so try your best
To tell every woman that doesn't have a clue
That you, yourself have PCOS too!
Now make sure you spread the word,
And tell every woman something about PCOS they haven't heard!
