Living with PCOS: The Struggle is Real

I've never been able to realize the patterns until I got my diagnosis. The mood swings, drowsiness, depression and anxiety building up before my period. Being so used to all of it, it's hard to realize that those are symptoms

I feel this! It sometimes feels like since it isn't like on the outside of your body, it feels different. But when you actually look at the symptoms it's like wtf.

I sent that too early. Sorry. But yeah. There are so many symptoms and they can be really severe. Your body just hates you!
