Well I know I have been open with everyone about having PCOS. So many of you know what it is! This is the first time I've had a blog so hopefully I can keep up with it.
Well a little about me- I am 22 years old. I have been married for almost 3 years (anniversary is next month!), I am married to a wonderful and supportive man, he has been through my side through so much, I couldn't ask for anything more. I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 21, although I had been searching for answers for almost 2 years and had symptoms as long as I can remember. It was a life changing event.
PCOS is so hard to describe, there are so many different symptoms and many variables with it, but the main ones are Few or no menstrual periods, Heavy, irregular vaginal bleeding, Hair loss from the scalp and hair growth on the face, chest, back, stomach, thumbs, or toes, Acne and oily skin, Depression or mood swings, Wait gain or upper body obesity, male-pattern baldness or thinning hair, repeat miscarriages, insulin resistance, breathing problems while sleeping, high blood pressure. I have a degree of all of these, and my main issue at this moment is Infertility, I'm sure most of you know this as I'm very open about it.
So with my blog I'm going to be open about the high's, the low's, the struggles and the joys of my life with PCOS. If you don't want to listen to a completely open me, that is fine, but I hope that as I am open about my struggles, I can help others, and fight PCOS. This is something I will not let control my life. I am the only one who can control it. And I'm determined to take it back.
