[at the gender clinic trying to get diagnosed as a trans man] me: ... and i unironically think that fictional characters who wear leather longcoats and wide brimmed hats that are like, edgy loners and stuff are cool. i think this is pretty conclusive evidence that i'm a man

the doctor i'm talking to: mmm actually several of our patients that are currently detransitioning like leather longcoats, so this is worrisome

Girlies with PCOS send me your tips and things that have worked for you. I’ve gained so much weight and losing it has been difficult. I feel so uncomfortable in my skin and it’s been very deflating to be honest.

September is PCOS Awareness month. Last year I made a post including all of the common symptoms. As it's nearly a year since my diagnosis, I thought I would share my story of being diagnosed...

I started showing symptoms of having polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS for short) when I was 14, in 2018. I went 9 months without a period, started growing body hair in places that are not considered 'normal' for women, gained a lot of weight, started getting very oily skin and acne.

When my mum queried this with a doctor, she was told I was just a teenager having an irregular phase and that no doctor would seriously look at a diagnosis for me until I was at least 16.

(what my mum didn't know is that I was being groomed and had been assaulted, which is when I developed binge eat disorder, which also accounted for the weight gain...)

By the time I had turned 16 in 2020, covid had put the uk into a second nation wide lockdown and completely ruined an already struggling NHS.

I didn't see a doctor about my PCOS until a month before I turned 19, due to all of the backlog.

My doctor ordered a blood test, and an ultrasound of my ovaries at a nearby hospital. The blood test was completed within a week, but it took me 6 weeks to get my first scan. I am still a virgin, and due to being sexually assaulted when I was younger, I was extremely nervous about having something in me and to have a nurse/doctor see me like that.

The external ultrasound was incredibly painful, having a bladder full of two liters of water pushing down onto you. The nurse couldn't get a good enough view, so I went to relive myself before having what would be my first of three ultrasounds.

The nurse took one look at my scan and confirmed I definitely had polycystic ovaries, she could also see I had ovulated. I knew I would be having my first period in 4 months in December of 2023. This was the last period I had, it was the worst I'd had in a very long time.

On my first scan, a large cyst was spotted, so I would need a second one due to the size of it. It was roughly the size of a ping-pong ball. My ovaries are also swollen to about three times the size they should be.

By my second scan, it had disappeared. I had a third as a precaution, which was also clear of anything concerning.

I then started taking Cerelle birth control in February.

I have had two bartholin cysts (infection of the vagina), hives, extremely sore breasts on and off, nausea, low libido, acne, increased body weight, tiredness, rashes and so much more caused by my birth control...

But it's preventing me from having an increased risk of developing cancer when I'm older, masking my symptoms so that I can have a 'normal' life whilst living with PCOS.

Although I still grow a better beard than my 18 year old brothers thanks to the increase androgen lol

I don't know how long I'll stay on birth control, or if I'll have to use other treatments, but this is my PCOS journey so far.

I need there to be some simple information on what I'm meant to do about being diagnosed with PCOS that isn't just telling me about how to still get pregnant or that my weight is disgusting.

does planned parenthood help with hormonal concerns you think??? like can I go to them with that

[shiningthroughpcos]

is it possibly PCOS related that most of my hair follicles have more than one hair in them? in my armpits especially

Hi!!! 😊

Thank you for your message—it’s a good question.

What you’re describing, this thing where multiple hairs grow in one follicle (it's called polytrichia or even compound follicles), can happen for many reasons. It’s not necessarily directly linked to PCOS, but it could very well be influenced by hormonal changes, including those caused by PCOS. People with PCOS often experience changes in hair growth patterns because of elevated androgen levels, but it’s also possible for this to occur naturally in some areas, like the armpits, regardless of having PCOS. Hair in this area is naturally a lot more coarse and dense as well.

If it’s something you’re concerned about or if it’s causing any discomfort, it’s always a good idea to chat with a healthcare provider or a derm for advice. I can only tell you my professional opinion, but they can help pinpoint the cause and discuss options.

I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions—I’m happy to answer whatever questions you have🤍

A PCOD and PCOS diet plan emphasizes balanced nutrition to manage symptoms and improve hormonal health. It includes high-fiber foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, along with lean proteins and healthy fats. Reducing processed foods and refined sugars helps control insulin levels, while anti-inflammatory foods, such as berries and fatty fish, support overall health and weight management.

why tf you telling tumblr about your ovaries, that's tmi 🤨

Because I love to over ovary share

But for real, I actually speak about my pcos and everything it does to me because of how many women or afab people suffer because of medical gaslighting and negligence.

It took 4 years for me to even see a doctor.

A nurse took 5 minutes with an internal ultrasound to tell me I had pcos.

And I'll keep ovary sharing about my ovaries, and all the other shit, pcos has caused me to deal with
