PCOS experience

Today I am not going to talk about something that has never been talked or spoken. It is a very common and hot topic among adult girls these days. 
PCOD, just like the name sounds so scary the disease is very common among the fertile girls and women.

It is so common that it sits unndiagnosed with many poeple. I dont have the statistics with me, however i have spoekn to many people who didnot know that they had PCOD until it was accidently diagnosed while having routine body check up. It can be asymptomatic to mildly symptomatic to having gravely intense symptoms. Now it depends on each person;s perspective how they take if they have later symptoms. I take my symptoms as worse ones. I again know there are other people suffering from other illnes wheere their physical as well as mental health is affected. i want to say the symptoms that we have with PCOS is also not less too.

Imagine, having your cysts back even after surgery. Imagine taking pills every day so that the bloody cyst's size would decrease but doesnot decrease an inch even after taking pills for years. The struggle to deal with infertility amid the social pressure is not something that could be explained easily. The social isolation that you push yourself into, could be detrimental, if not handled properly. 

PCOS can be managed if we speak about it more often and normalise the discussion about it. 
Healthy diet and physcial activity has actually been proven to have postive outcome. 

For me, my PCOS was diagnosed when i went to do my USG out of curiosity,  while i pursuing my bachelors.

A Mere Notification

 Grhhhhh.. (Mobile vibrates)   I woke up suddenly at the middle of night to check the updates, it was only a notification from a marketing company in a browser. I checked the notification and automatically my fingers were driven to social sites. It took another half an hour for me to scroll down the news feed and I went through the each application I had in my mobile before I put my phone down. It all started with one mere notification. Above was just an example of fraction of hours in a day. Once, I checked the phone usage hours ,even I was surprised to find that I was using the phone for more than six hours on my working days and more than 10 hours in my day off. It was alarming. And I thought of doing some research on “what was going on with me?” and found the term Tech addiction . Also called as Digital addiction, is similar as other addiction where the addict has an impulsive behavior disorder and is driven towards the source and if the source is not available the a...

A little talk with myself.

I was talking to my friend and one thing hit me during our conversation.  I told her ,"XYZ (my friend) is very good by heart". I dont think I would like me, if all my charactaer and behaviors was of any other person My friend was surprised to hear that and seeing her being surprised. I rethought  of I had just said. A trail of thought came to my mind. However, for that moment i escaped from the conversation changing the topic.  After i reached home, I sat and thought, why would I not like me, if I was someone else?  Would it be the outer appearance I was not satisfied with ? or the inner side that only I know.  Here we go, there was a debate between two aspects of me.  Eveyone is not really good or evil, but here I am creating two aspects of me, good and evil side so that they can talk to each other and sort this out.  I felt sense of relief and sat there to hear what my good and evil part  would conclude.  Good :(talking to me ) It is always...
