92 - PCOS Advocacy Opportunities for Every Woman

Women who are seeking a diagnosis for PCOS will, on average, see two to three doctors before they get a diagnosis. Even after diagnosis, women with PCOS are simply told to lose weight, take a pill, and go on their way. That’s not ok. We deserve better care. Our daughters, sisters, and friends deserve better treatment. Ashley Levinson is a well-known PCOS advocate and joins the podcast to talk about the challenges facing women with PCOS and how we all can advocate for better research and education. Listen as we discuss:

- Issues such as the importance of early diagnosis and post-pill syndrome

- Self-advocacy at the doctor

- How to begin advocating & get involved

- PCOS Awareness Month & World PCOS Day
