A little over 2 years ago, I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, a disease that only 6-10%, or roughly 5 out of every 100 women develope. It's the leading cause of infertility in women, and even though doctors have known about it for around 75 years, they still do not know what causes it nor do they have a cure. It's not a life threatening disease, but it does cause several dangerous symtoms in women, including highered or lowered insulin, diabetes, and puts them at a higher risk for ovarian and other reproductive cancers.

It's also an obscure disease, many women who have it don't even know it, and women who get it have never even heard of it before. I hadn't until I got the call from my gynocologist on the phone, who explained to me what it meant.

So I made this stamp to promote awareness of this disease to women, as well as men, since spreading the knowledge takes everyone it can get to do so. For more information on P.C.O.S., please visit this [link] which is a FAQ of the disease and may answer all of the questions you have.

You can save this image and put it on your website, post it in your journal, email it to a friend, whatever you would like to do with it. In light of this month being breast cancer awareness month, I thought that perhaps this disease should also have a little more exposure. Just let everyone you can know about it!!!

Thank you!!!!!!!
