Same. Seeing them was when I finally got diagnosed with PCOS. It isn’t even a lot of work to diagnose. They just actually listened to me and got the blood work done. The bar is so freaking low.

We learned the hard way that there there is a bias against young women in medicine. My wife had a health issue she complained about for years that eventually nearly took her life. Nobody listened until it became a dire emergency. We both wish we had found him 10 years sooner.
