Doctors dismissing young women with PCOS

Reported 6 months ago

Three young women in West Yorkshire have criticized the lack of support for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a painful and debilitating medical condition affecting up to one in 10 women in the UK. Despite struggling to get a diagnosis or effective treatment, women like Alex Offer, Laaraib Khan, and Jo Battiste faced dismissive attitudes from doctors, delays in diagnosis, and lack of support. The NHS encourages women concerned about their health to contact their GP, while organizations like Verity PCOS UK provide vital support and resources for those affected.
