Can't lose weight? Feeling tired? You could have PCOS. One in ten women suffer from a hormonal condition called polycystic ovary syndrome. It can cause weight gain; excess body hair; acne; breast pain; dizziness; exhaustion; depression; and mood swings. Women with PCOS also have a higher risk of developing diabetes and can experience fertility problems.
PCOS often goes undiagnosed because the symptoms are like PMS. So despite being so common PCOS isn't well-known.

It includes an easy 4-Point Plan to Wellness and an A-Z of symptoms and practical ways to deal with them, both through your doctor and with complementary therapies.
