A recent paper shows that between 1990 and 2021, global PCOS prevalence rose from 36.7 million to 69.5 million, with the largest incidence increase in adolescents. This increase underscores the need for early screening and targeted interventions. doi.org/10.1016/j.rbmo…

PCOS TIME? - Women rate NHS care for PCOS just 2 out of 10 - 75% of patients feel they are the most informed person in the room during a GP appointment - Many report feeling dismissed, unsupported, or left to self-manage a life-altering condition So it’s definitely PCOS TIME!

At #PCOSTIME Ali Abbara now discussing how obesity-related stigma adversely impacts: Mental & Physical Health: Linked to depression, anxiety, disordered eating, and physiological stress. Healthcare: Leads to care avoidance, biased treatment, and reduced quality of care.

Verity (PCOS UK) Very grateful to Dr Johnson-Sogbetun for sharing powerful personal testimony from her lived experience as well as her professional practice.

Verity (PCOS UK) Interesting discussion of the complex reasons why women of colour may have concerns and reservations about taking hormonal treatments, including misunderstandings between healthcare professionals and patients, plus past medical harms making it hard to build trust. #PCOS

New study highlights gaps in #PCOS care: Patients in OB/GYN clinic report having their symptoms dismissed, misaligned treatment goals with providers, and turning to social media for answers. It's time for more comprehensive, patient-centered approaches and better education!
