Hello everyone! Hope you are all having a wonderful day! What is PCOS you may ask??? PCOS is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. One of my fellow Twinsie Tuesday ladies, the fabulous Nory from Fierce Makeup and Nails, suffers from this condition and has asked that we spread the word! She has even started a blog about her struggles, triumphs and how she is coping with this, which you can read here.
This issue affects many women and is often misdiagnosed. There are also many symptoms of this syndrome which leads to misdiagnosis. These symptoms can include:
significant weight gain
facial hair increase
blood sugar problems
insulin intolerance
significant hair loss
depression and anxiety
infertility
cysts
excessive blood loss
irregular or extreme menstrual cycles
