Do you know what I think of PCOS? I think the name should really be “Please Confirm this Ovary Syndrome.” I'm telling you, I find that there's no condition that's more misdiagnosed than PCOS. Today on The Egg Whisperer Show podcast, I'm talking about PCOS, or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Did you know that celebrities like Jillian Michaels and Posh Spice both have PCOS? A few PCOS facts:- PCOS does not equal infertility.
- You may have a harder time getting pregnant if you have PCOS, because you may not be ovulating frequently or regularly. It's difficult only because it's hard to know when you're ovulating.
- When you do ovulate with PCOS, you are likely to ovulate multiple eggs, making you very fertile!
- Every time you ovulate, you make a cyst of ovulation. Ovulating multiple eggs is what creates multiple cysts, which is where you get the name: Poly (multiple) cystic (cystic).
- Some symptoms may include: hair loss of the scalp, hirsutism (or hair on your body in areas like the chin, upper abdomen, lower abdomen or back), high testosterone levels, high insulin levels, higher estrogen levels, and higher BMI.
- You can help manage PCOS by a paleo-like or mediterranean diet, taking birth control pills which can lower testosterone, or other testosterone-lowering drugs, and supplements.
