The thing is, you may not be able to communicate it to him or her. That’s why we’re here. We’re going to help you explain PCOS to your husband or partner so that you can finally stop worrying and enjoy your life together.
PCOS - A Simple Explanation For Your Husband or Partner
Hi there!
Are you the husband? Her partner?
First things first, let’s talk about PCOS.
PCOS is polycystic ovary syndrome.
When hormones aren’t balanced, the ovaries produce too many and too little hormones at the same time. This leads to excessive production of androgen hormones. These cause symptoms like acne, hair loss, weight gain, and infertility.
The only way to know if your partner has PCOS is to see a doctor and get her tested. In the meantime, you can talk to your partner about her symptoms and just let her explain how PCOS affects her life.
What You Should Know If She's Diagnosed With PCOS
You'll have to put in some effort to figure these out.
PCOS affects women differently.
She may not necessarily be pregnant if she misses her period.
Having difficulty getting pregnant if that is what the two of you want is horribly painful for her.
Be incredibly supportive of her weight loss efforts.
You may not care about her size or facial hair, but she probably does.
PCOS has a significant impact on a woman's feeling of femininity. You can help her by reminding her how beautiful she really is, and how much you admire her.
How to Talk to Your Woman About PCOS
Please be kind and gentle.
Discuss PCOS from a positive yet realistic viewpoint.
Be supportive, but try not to "be mean".
Provide her with honest feedback, but don't give her advice unless she asks.
If you see her starting a new diet or fertility-enhancing plan (like our PCOS30 Program), you can be supportive.
PCOS is a lifelong discussion that evolves. Therefore, as it changes for both of you, your understanding must also change.
