Opis

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a commonly misunderstood condition. Women who suffer from PCOS often suffer alone and in silence. The symptoms of PCOS often mimic other conditions and can be misdiagnosed and mistreated. Many women are left to suffer without any answers. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome contains a myriad of issues including; infertility, elevated blood sugars, elevated blood pressure, weight gain and chronic ovarian cysts. Also, one of the hardest issues to deal with: the emotional impact on a woman with PCOS. It can even affect relationships with partners, children and extended families. In this book, the author extends compassion from both a personal journey and over 24 years in the medical field. As you read, you will find the answers you need and the uplifting strength of someone who understands by your side. This book will help you understand that PCOS is an illness that happens on the inside, even when you look fine on the outside. Women who feel the symptoms will often go from doctor to doctor looking for answers to no avail. PCOS can even evade lab testing. This leaves the sufferer with many questions and very little support. In this book, the author addresses the many symptoms of PCOS from both a physical and emotional standpoint. She also addresses the implications on family and career life. She will take you through her personal journey with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. With empathy and understanding, she gently guides you through a comprehensive list of symptoms, finding the right doctors, what to expect with testing, treatments and of course, dealing with the emotional impact. There are also references for help such as; online support, fertility networks and even links for teens. Take the next step in your own PCOS journey to find out healthy ways of dealing with this mysterious disorder. The decision on how you will go about treating and living with PCOS is entirely up to you and this book can help you start working to design your own treatment plan and start living again
