Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome honestly makes way more sense than Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.

Because this condition was never just about “ovarian cysts” or fertility.

Women with PCOS are at higher risk for:
-type 2 diabetes
-heart disease
-fatty liver disease
-sleep apnea
-high blood pressure

Yet so many women are never properly counseled about these risks or referred for appropriate care early enough. As a cardiometabolic physician, I meet women in their 50s and 60s dealing with advanced disease who tell me:

“I wish someone had warned me earlier.”

We minimized PCOS by treating it like a niche reproductive issue instead of the systemic metabolic condition it often is.

@_chinelo_ Yeah I can see it, since you’re more predisposed to t2d

[Tea Con @Edeedee_]

Hmm someone said treating PCOS like you have diabetes is the way to go

These are the very few cases that made it to the social media. The only things that the victims have in common, is a vagina. Babies, old women, sluts, prudes, sex-workers, girlfriends, in their homes, in the church, in the mosque, in the bush, in a bus, in a school… they just need to exist.

“Cover yourself, dress properly, mind where you go”… some where covered, some didn’t need to be cover because they were babies, some went to church, some were just commuting, some didn’t even go anywhere because they were in their house.

Love my cocktail teas

[Tea Con @Edeedee_]

I feel so so drained mentally, physically, emotionally all the ally’s

[Tea Con @Edeedee_]

Feels like a trailer ran over me

Whoever said consideration is the highest form of love cooked. You can’t claim to love your friend, partner and family but not be considerate.

[Inner Thoughts. @Decayedlov]

@grayshurz Flowers fade. Trips end. But how someone handles conflict tells you everything about how safe you are with them.
Love isn’t proven when things are easy. It’s revealed when there’s tension.

Raspberry leaf tea is so good for periods, my cramps aren’t as bad. I just need to try a few more and decide on a favourite brand

My therapist saved my relationship. She made me realize:
“If your partner is upset and your first instinct is to get defensive, you’re not actually listening – you’re protecting your ego.

Don’t go to a brother’s house.
Don’t go for overnight study.
Don’t go to the market.
Don’t hire male stafff.
Don’t go to church.
Don’t go to party.
Don’t breathe.
Don’t exist.

It’s always advice upon advice for the girl child, never any vim for the rapist. You people are unwell.

[Fimi @fimiwiththeflow]

Ochanya was raped by her cousin and his father for 5 years since she was 8 years old until she died at 13.
She died from a condition called Vesicovaginal Fistula due to the sexual abuse.

She’s dead and her abusers walk free!

The reality of life is so mind boggling…
We talked a lot about death, how chilly, unreal and weird it is. We couldn’t wrap our heads around it. Hmmmm you’re literally always on my mind and a constant reminder that we don’t own time 🕊️💕
