When Your Doctor Says You Have PCOS But Only Looked at Your Weight

This week's episode tackles a question I hear far too often, and it gets me every single time: "My doctor says I have PCOS but only looked at my weight. What now?"

If this is your experience, I want you to know something right away, what happened to you isn't medicine. It's bias dressed up as care, and you deserve so much better.In this episode, we cover:

- What the Rotterdam criteria actually are and why they matter

- Why weight doesn't cause PCOS (and why that distinction is so important)

- Other conditions that might be going on if you haven't been properly tested

- Practical ways to advocate for the healthcare you deserve

- What to do if you suspect you've been misdiagnosed
