I Didn't Fit the PCOS Stereotype - And That's Why It Took So Long to Get Diagnosed- Aoibhin's story

from The Female Health Podcast · host MjNutrition

Think PCOS only affects women who are overweight or have irregular periods? Think again. In this episode I sit down with Aoibheann for one of the most honest and relatable PCOS conversations I've had on this podcast. Aoibheann doesn't fit the typical PCOS stereotype - she's not overweight, her cycles are relatively regular - but she has been battling difficult skin and the kind of hanger that turns you into a completely different person. We talk about what it's like to live with PCOS symptoms that get dismissed because you don't look the part, how blood sugar dysregulation affects your mood and energy in ways you never expected and why understanding your PCOS is the first step to actually feeling like yourself again. If you've ever been told you can't have PCOS because you're slim or your periods are regular - this one is for you. 🎙 Topics covered: Lean PCOS and why it's so often missed How insulin resistance affects skin, mood and energy The PCOS hanger demon 😈 Why Aoibheann finally got answers and what changed for her And if you would like to work with me book  a PCOS Clarity call to see if its the right fit for you
