Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that causes irregular menstrual periods because monthly ovulation is not occurring and levels of androgens (male hormones) in women are elevated. The condition occurs in about 5 to 10 percent of women. The elevated androgen levels can sometimes cause excessive facial hair growth, acne, and/or male-pattern hair thinning. Some, but not all, women with PCOS are overweight or obese, and they are at higher than average risk of developing diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea. For women with PCOS who want to become pregnant, fertility pills or injections are often needed to help women ovulate.
Although PCOS is not completely reversible, there are a number of treatments that can reduce or minimize bothersome symptoms. Most women with PCOS are able to lead a normal life without significant complications

Finally the pup is out of the bag!
I am pregnant. 🙂
What better way to start a week with some good news? Yes? I am currently 14 weeks 6 days of my pregnancy and officially on my second trimester. And I gotta say it’s been quite hard keeping this all to myself and not discussing it because I’m just so happy and so excited to share the good news. But H and I both wanted to finish the first trimester first before making the announcement.
Time flies when you’re this happy. I honestly can’t believe I’m almost 4 months now and that the little one inside me is thriving, growing and developing quickly. Up to this day, I still thank God for blessing us with the most wonderful gift He could ever give us- the gift of life.
(Hubby’s surprise note for me)
Believe me, this is the most exciting, scary, nerve-wrecking and fulfilling journey of my life.
