PCOS?

There's a lot more you know. The brain fogs, the bloating, the heavy bleeding, the scarce bleeding. Sometimes you wished you had a choice, but no you don't. PCOS does though. You wish like most girls you didn't have to wax your face, or battle acne, or bleed your entire life out for days, or struggle with your brain, or worry about fertility. If wishes were horses right?

Sometimes you feel it's easier to not think about it but no, how could you when you've got your meds to remind you. Oh! How could you even forget when there are people who constantly ask about your facial hair.

But you'd live. You'd live to fight another day. Maybe you won't win but at least you'd fight. PCOS may be tough but you're tougher. I know it's hard but you have spearmint, inositol and the community to make you feel stronger.
