As we enter Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) Awareness Month, here at Raemona we're committed to talking about it and discussing this women's health condition as much as we can. Because you know, it matters. Women's health MATTERS!
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common hormonal conditions affecting women around the world, impacting at least 20-25% of women in the Gulf who are of reproductive age. Despite how widespread it is, getting a diagnosis can be tricky because the symptoms are so varied, and there isn’t a single definition that fits everyone. Plus, when people do talk about PCOS, the focus often falls on weight and body image, which can make the conversation feel uncomfortable or limited.
This PCOS Awareness Month, it’s important to broaden the discussion and recognize the wide range of symptoms that come with PCOS, as well as how to manage them.
Dr. Aarti Javeri-Mehta, an Internal Medicine Specialist and Board Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician, says, “Normalizing the conversation around PCOS is essential because too many women with PCOS are going through it alone and in silence. By fostering open and safe discussions about PCOS, we can help more women seek the care they need without feeling ashamed or embarrassed. PCOS can deeply impact body image, leading to feelings of isolation and self-doubt, but these open conversations can help break that isolation. When we talk openly about PCOS, we empower more women to get checked, get diagnosed sooner, and take control of their health. While PCOS can be challenging, the good news is that managing it doesn’t have to be difficult, especially when you’re not facing it alone.”
Here are Dr Aarti Javeri-Mehta’s top tips on managing PCOS without feeling isolated:
Find a doctor you can trust and speak openly with: Finding the right doctor is essential - and studies show it significantly impacts the wellbeing of PCOS patients. You want someone who not only understands the complexities of PCOS but also listens to your concerns and takes them seriously. It’s important that your doctor is well-educated about PCOS and stays informed about the latest treatments and management strategies. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and seek a second opinion if necessary. A good doctor will work with you to create a personalized plan that addresses your symptoms and fits your lifestyle, making you feel empowered rather than overwhelmed.
Embrace and adopt a lifestyle you can be consistent with: PCOS management isn’t just about short-term fixes; it’s about embracing a lifestyle that supports your long-term health and well-being. This means finding a balance that works for you—whether it’s through diet, exercise, stress management, or a combination of all three. The key is to adopt habits that you can stick with for the long haul, rather than drastic changes that feel impossible to maintain. This might include incorporating more whole foods into your diet, finding a form of exercise you enjoy, or practicing mindfulness to reduce stress. The key thing to know is that small, consistent changes can make a big difference over time.
Connect with a supportive community: PCOS can be an isolating experience, filled with stigma, especially when it comes to issues like fertility challenges, body image, and mental health. Finding a supportive community—whether it’s online or in person—can make a world of difference by making it easier to adopt healthy behaviours. Surrounding yourself with people who understand what you’re going through can provide emotional support, practical advice, and a sense of belonging. These communities can help you feel less alone, encourage you to seek the help you need, and remind you that there’s a tribe out there who truly gets it. Connecting with others can be incredibly empowering and can help you navigate the ups and downs of living with PCOS.
