Okay And...I Have PCOS

On this episode of Okay And?, Leah Henry sits down with PCOS advocate, educator, and founder of Love Served Warm, Tianna Trinidad. If you’ve ever heard the words, “I’m sorry, there’s nothing we can do — except put you on birth control,” this episode is for you.Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) disproportionately affects women of color — often more severely and with fewer answers. Leah opens up about how her life was turned upside down after an ultrasound revealed a 10 cm ovarian cyst. From painful periods and excessive bleeding to hair loss, chin hair, and multiple periods a month, Leah’s experience is one many will find all too familiar. That’s why she brought in Tianna — a PCOS coach, content creator, and fierce advocate — to help unpack it all. Tianna shares her personal journey, including a heartbreaking miscarriage and the negligence she faced during one of the most devastating times in her life. Together, Leah and Tianna dive deep into the disparities Black women face when dealing with PCOS, how systemic racism impacts diagnosis and treatment, and why education and advocacy are crucial for healing. This conversation is raw, informative, and deeply necessary — especially for those who feel unseen in the healthcare system.
