PCOS Support

15+ year having PCOS and not knowing about it.

When I found out about it, I was pregnant. I had an appointment with a diabetes specialist, and we were talking about my diagnoses with diabetes, to then getting diagnosed with PCOS as well.

It all hit me at once, Diabetes, PCOS and the fact that I lost the baby as well. I didn't know what to do or how to feel about it all. So much information coming to me at once. Trying to process everything that was coming at me was something that I struggled with.

Having a lot to learn and still learning now is something that I need to be patient with. I am still learning about all of these things today.

DID YOU KNOW????

That not every woman knows that she has PCOS. Some may go years without realising that they have PCOS.

I was one of those women. For years I was not aware that I had PCOS, but when I found out, it all clicked for me. From those younger years for me to my years now. It feels like everything has fallen into place for me and I can now try and understand what is happening to myself and my body.

Research is now my best friend, to finding out what PCOS, what it means to me and for me and how I can change my lifestyle to help my body with my PCOS.
