🌿 1. PCOS is super common — but often undiagnosed
• It affects 1 in 10 people with ovaries of reproductive age.
• Many don’t even know they have it until they try to conceive or investigate irregular cycles.

🧬 2. It’s not just about ovaries
• Despite the name, PCOS is actually a whole-body hormonal and metabolic condition — not just a reproductive one.
• It affects insulin sensitivity, mood, hair growth, skin, and even heart health.

🍫 3. Craving sugar? There’s a reason
• Many people with PCOS have insulin resistance, which makes them crave carbs and sweets more intensely than others.

💁🏽‍♀️ 4. You can have PCOS without cysts on your ovaries
• Not everyone with PCOS has ovarian cysts. The condition is diagnosed based on a combination of symptoms, not just one ultrasound.

🧘‍♀️ 5. Stress makes PCOS worse — but relaxing helps regulate hormones
• Cortisol (stress hormone) spikes can worsen symptoms, but mindful practices like yoga, breathwork, and even joyful dancing can help regulate hormones.

🌈 6. Hair growth patterns can be a clue
• PCOS often causes hirsutism (excess facial/body hair) or thinning scalp hair. These changes are linked to increased androgens.

🩸 7. Irregular periods ≠ no ovulation
• Some people with PCOS still ovulate occasionally. That’s why natural pregnancy is still possible, even if cycles are unpredictable.

🧠 8. PCOS is linked to mental health
• People with PCOS are more likely to experience anxiety and depression, often due to both hormone imbalance and the emotional toll of symptoms.

🌺 9. You can manage PCOS naturally
• Through herbs, nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress care, many people reverse or reduce their symptoms without medication.

🧃 10. Spearmint tea helps with hair growth
• Drinking spearmint tea regularly has been shown to reduce excess facial hair by lowering androgen levels.

The chakra most commonly associated with PCOS (Polycystic O***y Syndrome) is the Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana), which governs creativity, sexuality, emotional well-being, and the reproductive organs. This chakra is located in the lower abdomen, around the area of the pelvis, which is also where the ovaries are situated. Here’s how the Sacral Chakra connects to PCOS:

Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana) and PCOS:
1. Emotional and Creative Expression:
The Sacral Chakra is tied to one’s ability to express emotions, creativity, and sensuality. A blockage or imbalance in this chakra may manifest in emotional challenges, feeling disconnected from one’s body, or experiencing creative blocks. Since PCOS can be linked to emotional stress or suppression of feelings, this chakra may be impacted, causing an inability to fully express or experience joy and creativity in one’s life.
2. Sexuality and Reproductive Health:
The Sacral Chakra governs the sexual organs and the ability to connect with one’s own sexuality and fertility. When this chakra is imbalanced, it can result in difficulties with fertility, sexual dissatisfaction, or feeling disconnected from one’s own sexual energy. Women with PCOS often experience fertility issues or changes in their menstrual cycles, which can indicate an energetic imbalance in the Sacral Chakra.
3. Guilt and Shame:
The Sacral Chakra is also connected to feelings of guilt or shame, particularly related to sexuality, body image, or past trauma. Women with PCOS may feel frustration or shame regarding physical changes, such as weight gain, acne, or unwanted hair growth, which can result in emotional blockages. These unresolved feelings can contribute to chakra imbalances, affecting overall well-being.
4. Energy Flow and Hormonal Imbalances:
The Sacral Chakra governs the flow of energy throughout the body, including hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle. Imbalances in the Sacral Chakra may contribute to irregular cycles, hormonal imbalances, and the symptoms associated with PCOS. By clearing and balancing this chakra, it’s believed that hormonal regulation can be supported, potentially easing symptoms like missed periods, excess hair growth, and other PCOS-related conditions.

Balancing the Sacral Chakra for PCOS:
1. Meditation and Visualization:
Meditation focusing on the Sacral Chakra can help promote healing and restore balance. Visualize a bright orange light (the color associated with the Sacral Chakra) in the lower abdomen, gently radiating warmth and energy. Breathing into this area while focusing on the intention to release emotional blockages can help restore harmony.

2. Movement and Dance:
Since the Sacral Chakra is linked to fluidity, movement, and expression, activities like dancing or gentle hip-opening yoga poses can activate and energize this chakra. Zumba, belly dancing, or even free-form dance can help release stuck energy and reconnect with the body’s natural rhythm.

3. Self-Care and Nurturing:
Practices that nurture the body and promote self-love, such as taking baths with essential oils (like ylang-ylang or jasmine) or engaging in self-massage, can soothe the Sacral Chakra. These practices help promote feelings of safety, pleasure, and joy in one’s body, which can assist with emotional healing.

4. Affirmations:
Using affirmations related to the Sacral Chakra can help shift limiting beliefs and promote healing. Examples include:
• “I am connected to my body and honor my emotions.”
• “I embrace my creativity and my sexuality.”
• “I am fertile and capable of creating new life, in all forms.”
• “I release guilt and embrace my authentic self.”

5. Herbal Remedies and Nutrition:
Herbs like Shatavari, Vitex (Chaste Tree), and D**g Quai are sometimes used to support hormonal balance and reproductive health. They can be part of a holistic approach to supporting the Sacral Chakra and balancing PCOS symptoms. Eating foods that nourish the body, such as root vegetables, oranges, and other foods that promote grounding and vitality, can also be beneficial.

6. Crystal Healing:
Crystals that resonate with the Sacral Chakra, such as Carnelian, Orange Calcite, Tiger’s Eye, and Moonstone, can be used in meditation or placed on the body to help balance energy and support healing of reproductive and emotional health.

7. Yoga Poses:
Certain yoga poses that open the hips, pelvis, and lower abdomen are known to activate the Sacral Chakra. Poses like Bound Angle Pose (Baddha Konasana), Butterfly Pose, Pigeon Pose (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana), and Cobra Pose (Bhujangasana) can help release tension and energy blockages in the pelvic region.

By incorporating practices that support the Sacral Chakra, women with PCOS may find relief from some of the emotional and physical symptoms related to the condition. Connecting with and healing this chakra is seen as a way to bring balance to both the body and mind, creating space for emotional healing and a more harmonious reproductive system.

The spiritual connection to PCOS (Polycystic O***y Syndrome) can be explored through the lens of holistic health and emotional well-being. While there is no universally agreed-upon spiritual perspective on PCOS, many people find that their experiences with the condition are linked to deeper emotional, mental, and spiritual factors. Here’s how PCOS can have spiritual connections:

1. The Feminine Energy and Reproductive Health:
PCOS is a condition that affects the ovaries, which are directly tied to the feminine reproductive energy. In spiritual terms, the ovaries can be seen as representing creation, fertility, and the nurturing aspects of womanhood. When a woman’s reproductive system is imbalanced, it can indicate a need to reconnect with her feminine energy. This may involve healing emotional wounds, embracing self-care, or working on balancing masculine and feminine energies within herself.

2. Blocked Creativity and Expression:
The reproductive system is often associated with creativity and the ability to bring new life or ideas into the world. In spiritual practices, women with PCOS may be experiencing a block in their creative or expressive abilities. This can manifest as feeling stifled, disconnected from one’s own desires, or unfulfilled in some way. Working on unleashing creativity through artistic expression, setting clear intentions, and nurturing one’s passions can support spiritual healing.

3. Emotional and Spiritual Imbalances:
PCOS can sometimes reflect emotional imbalances. Spiritually, some believe that the root cause of physical conditions like PCOS is tied to unresolved emotional trauma or suppressed emotions. It is thought that when a person experiences unexpressed anger, sadness, fear, or a lack of self-love, it can manifest in physical ailments. Healing the emotional body, through practices like meditation, therapy, journaling, and forgiveness, can be seen as part of a spiritual path to balance and healing.

4. The Sacredness of the Womb:
The womb holds deep spiritual significance, representing creation, birth, and the Divine Feminine. Some spiritual traditions believe that womb health is directly tied to the soul’s journey and experiences. Women with PCOS may be encouraged to reconnect with their womb space through meditation, energy healing, or sacred rituals, with the goal of restoring balance and honoring the sacredness of this area of the body.

5. Mind-Body-Spirit Connection:
In holistic healing, PCOS is often viewed as a condition that reflects the imbalance between the mind, body, and spirit. The physical symptoms of PCOS—such as hormonal imbalance, weight gain, and hair growth—may point to a disconnect between these areas. Spiritual practices like yoga, mindfulness, and deep breathing exercises can help restore balance, promoting harmony between the mind, body, and spirit.

6. Self-Worth and Acceptance:
The experience of dealing with the outward symptoms of PCOS (such as acne, hair thinning, or weight gain) can sometimes lead to a spiritual crisis of self-worth and body image. A woman with PCOS may struggle with feelings of inadequacy or low self-esteem, which can affect her connection to her inner divinity. Through spiritual practices that foster self-love, compassion, and acceptance, these feelings can be healed. Embracing oneself fully, regardless of physical appearance or perceived imperfection, is a powerful spiritual practice.

7. Sacred Feminine Rituals and Healing Practices:
Some spiritual traditions and rituals emphasize the importance of reconnecting with one’s body through sacred feminine practices, like menstrual tracking, fertility rituals, or working with specific herbs or crystals to balance energy. Engaging in these practices may help women with PCOS feel more grounded and empowered in their physical bodies and spiritual journeys.

8. The Role of the Divine Mother or Deities:
In some spiritual traditions, working with feminine deities or the concept of the Divine Mother can be a source of support and healing for women with PCOS. Figures like the goddess Oshun (known for her connection to fertility, love, and healing) or other goddess archetypes may be invoked for spiritual assistance, energy healing, and guidance.

9. Manifestation and Intentions:
Some spiritual teachings suggest that physical conditions may reflect underlying beliefs or unconscious patterns. Women with PCOS may find that their healing journey involves shifting their mindset, releasing limiting beliefs, and setting intentions for a balanced and vibrant life. Affirmations, vision boards, and manifestation practices focused on health, self-love, and fertility may help facilitate healing on all levels.

Incorporating spiritual practices such as meditation, breathwork, energy healing, and connecting with nature may assist in promoting both physical and emotional healing for those living with PCOS. Would you like to explore any specific spiritual practices or healing modalities?

facts about PCOS (Polycystic O***y Syndrome):

1. PCOS is More Than Just a Fertility Issue: While PCOS is commonly associated with fertility problems, it also affects many aspects of health, including metabolic function, cardiovascular health, and mental well-being. Women with PCOS are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and heart disease.

2. Not All Women with PCOS Have Cysts: Despite the name, not all women with PCOS will have ovarian cysts. The cysts are actually small, undeveloped follicles that fail to mature properly, but the presence of cysts is not required for a diagnosis of PCOS.

3. PCOS Can Lead to Insulin Resistance: Many women with PCOS develop insulin resistance, which means their cells don’t respond as effectively to insulin. This can lead to higher insulin levels and, over time, increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

4. PCOS Affects Mental Health: Women with PCOS are at a higher risk of depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. Hormonal imbalances can contribute to mood swings, and the physical symptoms (like weight gain or acne) can impact self-esteem.

5. PCOS Can Impact Sleep: Sleep disturbances are common in women with PCOS. Conditions like sleep apnea and insomnia may be more prevalent, especially in women who are overweight or obese, as insulin resistance can also affect sleep patterns.

6. PCOS Is Often Misdiagnosed: The symptoms of PCOS—such as irregular periods, acne, weight gain, and hair thinning—can overlap with other conditions, making it sometimes difficult for healthcare providers to correctly diagnose it.

7. PCOS Can Be Managed with Lifestyle Changes: While there is no cure for PCOS, making lifestyle changes, such as adopting a healthy diet, increasing physical activity, and managing stress, can significantly improve symptoms. Nutritional therapy and herbal remedies can also play a supportive role.

8. PCOS Can Be Linked to Sleep Apnea: Due to factors like obesity, insulin resistance, and hormonal imbalances, women with PCOS are more likely to develop sleep apnea, which is a condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep.

9. PCOS Affects More Than Just Reproductive Organs: The hormonal imbalances caused by PCOS can affect a wide range of body systems, including the skin, hair, and even the thyroid.

10. PCOS and Endometrial Cancer: Women with PCOS are at higher risk for endometrial cancer due to the imbalance in estrogen and progesterone levels, which can lead to the thickening of the uterine lining. Regular monitoring and proper management of menstrual cycles are important for reducing this risk.

LONG POST ALERT !!!

PCOS AWARENESS MONTH 💜

After years of trying to conceive I finally got my beautiful baby ☺️ the best gift in the world. My obgyn was very firm to believe I was going to have to take metformin to get pregnant. She Also told me 9 times out of ten my pregnancies would be difficult and I would never be able to conceive on my own .

Side note: I was the one that told my obgyn I have pcos then she tried to tell me I didn’t like okay I don’t know my body 🤨😖 she tested me tho and then I had to call them back 2 weeks for my result and I know I had pcos to begin with .

Imagine how this made me feel on top of not feeling the most feminine, beautiful, creative and the things a woman should feel . Constant limbo with my emotions depression anxiety all of that !!.

After talking with my obgyn I was determined to prove her wrong 😂☺️. This is when I went deep reflecting on my feelings my emotions where the root of my problem started . Pcos is linked to the endocrine and ovaries . In the spiritual world that’s the crown and sacral . As I study more I believe it’s all three lower chakras. Solar , sacral , and root . The solar is our emotions . The sacral is our creativity and the root is our foundation.

With this information I had to think to myself is it fair bringing a baby in this world with unstable emotions , lack in creativity and no foundation - not feeling safe in this world 😉. Beside a baby needs all , a baby deserves a parent that emotionally mature enough to analyze thier emotions. A baby deserves to know what creativity feels and look like !!! Beside this is how they learn colors , shapes and thier sensory receptions .

My journey with pcos has been long , stressful , most of the the time heart breaking . Many times I cried because I was uncomfortable I didn’t know what to do . Doctors have yet to find a cure or reason why us women is struggling and I truly believe it’s more spiritual than anything . I believe pcos could be caused by many things lack of connection between mother and child , lack of creativity or expressing this energy to the world . Or there was just a possibility you were just born on with more masculine energy and it’s your role to practice being more feminine this lifetime.

With this being stated I did yoga , mindful mediation and breath work . I rewired my body cells repaired and made them new again . I healed my ovaries with my mind sending my energy to my sacral . A lot of vision work indeed a lot of reiki and most of the time I did it every night before I went to bed . I exercised every day !! And if not every day I did something creative . For me it was about healing those inner child wounds, lack of connection with mother . Expressing my creativity and being bold and passionate about it . With all this work I had my baby naturally and vaginally. They tried to cut me in that hospital I wasn’t having that !!! I had my labor plan but that another story for another day .

Oh and pcos is not about weight you can be the skinniest person with pcos it’s about HORMONES !!! So ladies with this information please remember to take one day at a time . YOU CAN HAVE A BABY NATURALLY F**K WHAT THAT OBGYN SAY !!!
