Fireside Chat on Living With PCOS, Featuring Actress Sasha Pieterse

“Take heart, you’re definitely not alone with PCOS.”

Actress and author Sasha Pieterse shared this important advice during myPCOSteam’s live Q&A on May 6, 2021, where members of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) community had a chance to ask questions about living with the disease.

Pieterse and PCOS Awareness Association founder Megan Pearson joined myPCOSteam co-founder Mary Ray to answer members’ questions about how to manage a chronic condition, the impact of PCOS on their lives, and how to talk to family members about the diagnosis.

Here are some of the things Pieterse and Pearson discussed during the live Q&A:

  • How a lack of awareness around PCOS often leads people to keep the condition a secret

  • Why many physicians overlook PCOS symptoms and misdiagnose the condition

  • How PCOS can impact fertility, weight, and mental health
