I have been bullied and body shamed by my gyno last week. It was horrible and told I have this condition and I will die with it. It’s not like that but it’s really hard at times, don’t let anyone put you down ❤️

Ugh I totally hear you! My recommendation would be to find an reproductive endocrinologist, as I’ve found they’re usually a little more knowledgeable. It’s definitely difficult since PCOS falls under both OB/GYN as a specialty, as well as endocrinology. As ridiculous as it sounds, keep going until you find a provider that is understanding and is knowledgeable and well informed about PCOS. ❤️
