Presenting PCOS

Libby Scarlet Stables

Welcome to Presenting PCOS. I'm Libby Stables, host, and I was diagnosed with PCOS at 18. PCOS affects upwards of 100 million women worldwide and almost 25% of trans men, yet does not receive enough coverage. Join me, expert guests and others with PCOS to help you know what to do to get diagnosed, take control over your symptoms, educate partners and family and create awareness. We'll also be exploring the societal ideologies and issues that can make living with PCOS so much harder, and hear from the people who are advocating for change.
