Reposted from @blessingmanifesting September is #PCOSAwarenessMonth so I wanted to take a moment to tell you a little bit about it. PCOS is a hormonal condition where the body produces too many androgens, or "male hormones". This causes problems like irregular and super painful periods, insulin resistance, and ovarian cysts for many (but not all) of people with PCOS and a lot of other symptoms.⠀ ⠀ My wife has #PCOS and it's we've had so many discussions about how difficult it is not only on a physical level - but an emotional/mental one as well, which has been the hardest for her. ⠀ ⠀ PCOS often comes along with hirsutism, or excessive hair growth. Some people with PCOS can grow facial hair, even full beards (she can, and it's a mighty fine looking one! One of the positives of wearing a mask out in public is less shaving!) But when she was younger she'd shave her face twice a day just so that no one would see.⠀ ⠀ So many of the symptoms have a HUGE impact on your self-esteem and your body image and they aren't often talked about. Infertility is probably the most talked about symptom but there are so many others. Hair growth on arms backs, chest, and stomach. Skin tags, acne, and dark patches of skin are also signs of PCOS, as well as weight gain and difficulty losing weight. Hormonal imbalances often cause mood swings, depression, anxiety, headaches, and insomnia as well.⠀ ⠀ If you're experiencing a significant number of these symptoms talk to your doctor.⠀ ⠀ #pcosaa #pcosproblems #pcoscommunity #polycysticovariansyndrome #polycysticovarysyndrome #pcosresearch #pcosresources #pcossupport #cysterstrong #cysterhood #pcosawarenessmonth #pcosfighter #pcoswarrior #pcoslife #pcoslifestyle #pcossymptoms #pcoshealth #pcosawarenessmonth2020 - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/CE11gUWDeNV/?igshid=1igieqtky991z

I am one of 1 in 10 who wears the teal! Is there a cure for PCOS? There is no cure for PCOS, but there are treatments available. These treatments can help balance the hormones in your body, or relieve some of the symptoms, such as acne and weight gain. Some of these treatments you can do yourself. For others, you need to see a health care provider. What can I do to help myself? Lifestyle changes may help improve your quality of life and prevent health problems in the long run. For example, you may consider limiting your intake of processed foods or foods with high sugar content. A balanced diet and exercise will help your body regulate your hormone cycles and may delay or even prevent some of the health problems associated with PCOS. Some women try to avoid exposure to environmental pollution and processed food because these may contain endocrine disrupting chemicals. These chemicals can disrupt normal hormone levels, including those already affected by PCOS.  Some products may help you fight hair loss and facial hair. * Hair loss: Some women use a thickening shampoo and conditioner, or talk to their health care providers about safe hair regrowth treatments. * Facial hair: Waxing, tweezing, bleaching, shaving, and depilatory creams are effective for hair removal. Electrolysis and laser treatments are other effective methods, but are expensive. Sometimes health care plans will cover these procedures. .
