September is recognized internationally as PCOS awareness month. From my story, it should be easy to understand the significance of adequate representation regarding any social/medical/political issues. Without the hormonal health anecdotes from a reality television star, I wouldn’t have felt the confidence at 16, 17, or 18 years-old to advocate so strongly for myself in front of numerous physicians who attempted to convince me that I was too young or naive to understand my health and what I was experiencing.
