PCOS

It looks like my journey with PCOS is not over. One of my doctors had hoped the pregnancy would correct my hormones but 10 weeks post partum and its back and as bad if not worse than before.
I started treatment yesterday for it and am praying it helps. Its frustrating when I really just want to enjoy my baby but feel like my body hates me.
I feel this is just one way that I can help others though, by spreading awareness and talking about my trials and successes with PCOS.
Its funny because when I was finally diagnosed with PCOS we had been trying almost two years to conceive and the hope of a medication allowing me to have a baby was all that mattered. I didnt really research the illness just researched my options to become a mommy and what PCOS would do during pregnancy. Now I am finally learning about this chronic illness that affects me. Learning that things that have bothered me that I never thought were a symptom actually are caused by PCOS.
I have also learned how severe my PCOS had gotten. It was left undiagnosed for so long it just continued to escalate but now I have answers and options.
Together woman of PCOS can help eachother fight this, feel better, and find treatments.
Here we go. . .
