I have PCOS too! How do you deal with facial hair and the hair thinning?

Posted on av swmoddy

So… honestly, I don’t have much advice really, especially the hair thinning. I’m lucky that I like short hair and look good with it, so its not so visible but when my hair is long, it looks ratty due to how thin it is.

As for the facial hair… well I had laser treatment back a few years, so its not as dark as it could be. However, its still enough to notice, specially since I also got red and blond hairs in there, only thing I can really do is shave it away and when its long and my face is sensitve, I wear scarves to hide it as best I can.

Pcos is not so easy, we do the best we can with it huh.

Terribly sorry if this is too personal Moddy, but I noticed you mentioned having something named POCS on another post and I was wondering what that was?

You good nonny, I don’t mind answering, since I mentioned it first.

So, Pcos, or polycystic ovary syndrome, is exactly what the long name implies, I have cyst like growths on my ovaries and there are a few types apparently, Insulin-resistant PCOS, Inflammatory PCOS, Hidden-cause PCOS, and Pill-induced PCOS.

I’m not sure why I have it but due to having it, my hormones are pretty fucked up, which has caused me no small amount of body dysmorphia unfortunately as I have some male pattern hair growth for one and for another I have thinning of my hair. As a child I used to have thick hair if thin hair strands, that changed as a teen however when the PCOS got active, causing my hair to thin out, to the point its now extremely fine and silky but also thin and I worry I might turn so thin in the hair my scalp become visible.

There are other things I’ve had due to it, though I don’t want to get into details. But some of the symptoms are high levels of stress, high blood pressure, sleep disorders, infertility, skin allergies, acne, dandruff, pelvic pain, depression, and low libido for one.

Thankfully, the cysts are benign even if they cause… issues.

So yeah, that’s Pcos.

If you want to learn more you might wanna look it up on wikipedia or something lol

That one post that’s like “Why do people always write characters in fantasy and historical settings with a generic ‘vial of oil’ by the bed?” always bugs me

Like what’s not clicking

It’s sex oil for sex, clearly in this setting that’s what it’s specialized for and why it’s there

“What kind of oil? Cooking oil? Saddle oil? Lamp oil?” No clearly it’s a kind used for this purpose

Why do you want an explanation mid sex scene for the production history of this oil. Why is it weird to you that there’s not an in depth explanation of the history of this oil

Do you read contemporary fiction and say “Um excuse me what do you mean there’s a ‘tube of lube’ by the bed? What kind of lube? Is it machinery lubricant? Surgical lubricant? You didn’t explain as the sex scene happened and now I’m so confused!”

Like. Why is this something that breaks a scene for you.

incorrectstarwarslegendsquotes:

Yoda: Why are there little handprints all over the wall?

Dooku, whispering: Why are there little handprints all over the wall?

Qui-Gon, whispering back: Because I have small hands.

Dooku: Because he has small hands.

This was an experiment, but I couldn’t help myself and liked this dialogue too much.
