PCOS is hard but it’s even harder to see young girls struggling with it from very early on in life. One of the biggest reason why I feel so passionately about creating PCOS awareness is this – given the true epidemic that PCOS has become, I cannot imagine another generation struggling with PCOS like we do. We need to make our daughters, younger siblings, sisters, friends aware of this debilitating condition so they are better informed, better prepared and our future is much better and brighter than what it is today. Here are 5 things you need to know if you are diagnosed with PCOS at an early ..read more

So, let’s talk OCPs : OCPs do not treat PCOS but it is one of the best bet available to us in medical science. If your symptoms are quite troublesome for example acne or facial hair or regularizing your cycle for that matter, OCPs can help you bring them under control ..read more

You asked for it and here it is! Smoothies you can count on to tackle your PCOS or even if you are generally looking for a healthy morning start. Smoothies are the rich source of antioxidants and are a perfect filling way to start your day off on the right foot.

Time to talk about the various diagnostic tests one goes through if suspected of PCOS and what does that mean! Now I am not going to include everything, just some of the most commonly done tests because when your doctor prescribes them, more often than not, either you don’t understand the need for it or if you do, the source is google so I thought I would make things even easier for you here, hope this helps.

Do you know when was the first time PCOS came into being? And do you ever wonder why it survived evolution in spite of reduced fecundity (ability to reproduce)? I recently found a research regarding the same and the results were pretty interesting so I figured I would share it with you here.

I love researching, be it anything – good food, places to visit, hacks, DIY’s, literally anything, so obviously, when it comes to PCOS, I am no different. I love talking to other women who are thriving with PCOS, other doctors and learning from their patient experience and viewpoints. With all of that and my little knowledge on the subject, what I have come to realize eventually is every woman with PCOS is different, they struggle with different things (even though because of the same reasons), respond to treatment differently and ultimately cope the different ways which is why I feel we aren ..read more
