I've spoken about the fact that I suffer from polycystic ovaries syndrome before but I don't think I've ever dedicated a full post to it. Just in case anyone hasn't read those posts before, I'll give you a wee bit of background. Polycystic ovaries syndrome affects about 10% of women and although relatively common, some doctors really don't know anything about it. It affects fertility in women and the important thing about it is gettig on top of your symptoms. It has a wide range of presenting symptoms which include acne, lack of periods, problems with periods, mood swings, excessive hair growth etc. It can sometimes look like PMT.

Last time I was at the doctors, I had done lots of research into the problems I was having with my irregular blood sugars. I took along evidence and still this horrible doctor refused to listen to me. I to...

My diet has been terrible this week. Not that I've been eating loads of rubbish, I haven't really been eating. I can honestly say its been over a week since I've had 3 square meals a day.
