It won't let me edit, don't let others define you. I hope you get what I meant.

Yep but they can get over it. I have sufferered since I was 12 and wasn't diagnoses till 4 yrs ago. Don't worry about what they think. They aren't the ones going through it. I have Celiac, Gastroparsis, Endometriosis, and PCOS. I just had a surgery for the endo and PCOS. I was told by my aunt I wanted pity. It hurt pretty bad but that's her own hateful misery that really has nothing to do with me. Pray for them, delete them or I started changing my posts with "custom" people on my posts when I don't want to include certain people. Do not allow someone else to control you. If women didn't get the word out and talk about it, then none of us would know about PCOS. I actually just posted a statement on my facebook page that people are more likely to accept a ton of viagra commercials and ads, lude sexual memes, or raunchy stuff but when it comes to women's health, it's suddenly taboo. It's a medical problem and no one has a right to dismiss it. Keep your chin up and others don't define you.

Yes. People seem to think it is cured with weight loss or that it can't be that bad.
