Do any other women out there feel less like a woman because of PCOS...?

This comment is extremely unnecessary. There are many reasons that can't all be acknowledged and should not have to be as to why someone can't make the changes that would make them happy. I for one have very rashy skin and my hirsutism gets very irritated when shaved and I have tried many things to try to remedy this. Waxing would probably be my best bet, but guess what? Can't afford it. I have a lot of hair that grows fast. I go through so many razors I can barely afford that. And losing weight doesn't happen for everybody even when they do the right things. Besides that, a lot of us just lose weight in our limbs and can't lose anything out of our stomachs where we really want to. So, you need to take several seats, because exercise doesn't change the imbalances that cause you to hold or lose weight in an umfeminine pattern, people have other problems you can't see or figure for that play a role in how they can or can't manage themselves and frankly it's none of your business and not your place. Narrow minded comments like these I typically avoid, but come on, get real. Plus, what are you going to do about head hair loss? Wear a wig? Guess what? That sure does change it, but I still hate it and am still unhappy. Really, you need to be more mindful of your remarks. Good luck to everyone I hope we all get what we need.
