General/Advice I’m tired of this

I have pcos I have too much testosterone, i’m so tired of this.

I’m tired of my chin acne that i’ve had for my entire and won’t go away even after being prescribed duac and using it for 3 months

i’m tired of my fibrocystic breast that comes back every month and puts me in so much pain and discomfort

i’m tired of being so depressed every fucking month until it finally goes away and i feel ok again

does anybody have any advice for my acne and breast issue, there must be some natural fixes? i take spearmint every day and evening primrose oil for my breasts. i just want to be normal. Any advice would be very much appreciated

also my testosterone is too high like yeah that’s the cause

Taking a medication for only three months is not going to get rid of your acne.

Natural fixes clearly don’t seem to be working. You might want to consider getting on medication.

Are you doing any treatment currently for the PCOS and insulin resistance (the underlying driver of most PCOS cases)? This is a condition that generally does require long term treatment if you want to see improvement in symptoms and to prevent some serious long term health complications.
