PCOS Relief: Educational Workshop on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

About the Workshop

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine condition affecting up to 26% of women in specific populations, making it one of the most common health challenges faced by women of reproductive age. Despite its prevalence, there remains a significant need to increase awareness and reduce the stigma surrounding PCOS, especially among ethnic minority (EM) communities.

At this informative workshop, we’ll cover:

• PCOS Basics: Understanding symptoms such as irregular periods, excess hair growth, acne, and challenges with fertility.
• Managing Symptoms: Explore various management strategies, including medications, lifestyle changes, and self-care techniques.
• Long-Term Health Considerations: Learn about the potential risks associated with PCOS, such as Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease, and ways to mitigate them.
• Breaking Barriers: Addressing the stigma, isolation, and mental health impact (like anxiety and depression) associated with PCOS.
• Your Voice Matters: Be a part of shaping future services for EM women, empowering change and fostering community.
