PCOS Explained

The truth about hormonal birth control


Listen Later

In this episode, Clare sits down with Annabelle to tackle a hot topic: hormonal birth control. Whether it’s the pill, IUD, or implant, hormonal birth control is often recommended for managing PCOS symptoms. But is it right for you?


We’re diving into the pros, cons, and everything in between. From helping with acne and hirsutism to the potential downsides like mental health changes, weight gain, and even its surprising effect on who you’re attracted to (yes, really!), we’ll give you a balanced view so you can make the best decision for yourself.


If you’ve ever felt stuck between conflicting advice—from doctors insisting the pill is mandatory to influencers warning it’s the worst thing ever—this episode is for you.


Take the Ovie questionnaire and figure out the best PCOS management plan for you.
