If you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS and left your doctor’s office feeling confused, dismissed, or like your body is failing you — this episode is for you.

In this episode of The PCOS 365 Podcast, we’re reframing one of the most damaging beliefs women with PCOS carry: that their symptoms mean something is wrong with them. The truth? You are not broken. You are unsupported.

PCOS is not just a reproductive condition — it affects blood sugar regulation, stress hormones, inflammation, gut health, mood, and more. Yet most women are given little more than a diagnosis, a prescription for birth control, and the advice to “lose weight.” That lack of guidance creates frustration, shame, and burnout — not healing.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why PCOS feels so personal — and why that’s not your fault

How the medical system treats PCOS in pieces instead of as a whole-body condition

The difference between being “broken” and being unsupported

Why your symptoms are not random, but messages from your body

How to begin shifting from fear and self-blame to understanding and support

You’ll also be guided through a gentle reflection to help you reconnect with your body and identify what support might look like for you right now — without pressure, perfection, or overwhelm.

This episode is the foundation for the season ahead, where we’ll continue to bring clarity, context, and compassion to the PCOS diagnosis — and help you feel more grounded, informed, and supported in your day-to-day life.
