Living with PCOS before I understood it was incredibly frustrating and isolating. My body felt completely out of control. I hadn’t had a period in nearly five months, my energy was constantly drained, and anxiety and depression were always there in the background. On top of that, I was struggling with facial hair growth (hirsutism), which made me feel self-conscious and frustrated every day.
Joining NOVUM was transformative. For the first time, I felt truly heard and supported. I learned why my body was behaving the way it was, how my hormones and insulin resistance were connected, and practical steps to manage my PCOS. My periods slowly became more regular, my energy levels improved, and symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, and facial hair growth started to ease. But the biggest change has been emotional: I went from feeling powerless and confused to feeling confident and in control of my body.
