Whatever you do, don't ignore PCOS like I did for so long. The symptoms
can get better, but not unless you take charge of your own health, get an accurate diagnosis, do your research, and work with your doctor to find a treatment plan that works for you.
The diagnosis of PCOS is a bitter pill to swallow, but if you're walking this path, you're not alone. Many of your lesbian sisters are striding right along with you.
(I'd love to hear from other lesbians who are dealing with PCOS. What worked for you and what didn't? What was most helpful to you in terms of support? Do you have any words of advice to add to this article?)
