The PCOS Girls Podcast

I just love listening to these ladies ❤️ the information and knowledge they have shared has been soooo helpful! Thank you for all that you do!

The ladies deserve to be paid for their work. They’ve taught me more about PCOS than the five doctors I’ve been to. Enjoy listening to them, especially the weekly catch-ups. And for their consistent reminders to be kind to yourself and that less is more when it comes to PCOS.

Hello Ladies, I first want to start out by saying thank you. I was diagnosed when I was 17 and never really did anything with the information. No one explained to me what PCOS was, why I had it, what I should do for it. I was given a blind diagnosis and told that this was my life now. I was put on birth control immediately and no one ever said a word about it again. I was never even offered a follow up appointment. For 8 years I have been on some form of hormonal birth control and no one even checked up on me. It never helped with my symptoms other than semi regulating my periods and I just thought that this is what life looked like for someone with PCOS. Life with PCOS couldn't change. I decided about a year ago to take my PCOS and overall health more seriously, and immediately felt like I was fighting an impossible battle. I was discouraged from the lack of knowledge and care available, and ultimately I had no idea where to start. My healthcare professionals were incredibly discouraging when I decided to get off of birth control, but I tried anyway. When I showed back up in her office a few months later, discouraged and inflamed with all of my symptoms I was told, “I told you so” and bullied back onto hormonal birth control.I had lost hope entirely. I had been searching high and low for hope when I found your podcast. It was the first time I felt like maybe there was hope. Maybe feeling awful in my body didn’t have to be normal. Maybe birth control wasn’t the only option. You deliver information in such a safe and encouraging way. You both have given me the courage, the knowledge, and the support to feel like I am making informed decisions about my body and my PCOS. I am having my IUD removed this afternoon and although I am worried about what is to come, I now have the knowledge and the strength to trust myself in my decision making. You have given me the knowledge to not get discouraged during this lifelong process, especially the process of coming off of birth control. So again I want to say thank you. I am sure you get dozens of messages like this everyday, but you have truly changed my life. I encourage everyone I know with PCOS to listen to you guys. Please keep doing what you are doing. You are changing lives. Beth Cecil

I love Brig and Mel! They are funny, kind, normal girls who are battling PCOS themselves. I have listened to every ep and enjoyed all of them. As an American I must say I am fond of their accents too. I love the interviews and love their perspectives. A must listen if you have PCOS!
