I am the mother of a beautiful young woman who has PCOS. Since her early adolescence she suffered unimaginable pain and emotions that doctors, nor us parents, could explain or assist her with!
Once she was finally diagnosed, by a budding young female MD, her future for potential relief began. This was in 24 years ago. She has struggled much and gained much in knowledge and activism for medical professionals to take PCOS seriously.
The information and comradeship of PCOSAA is trustworthy and helps immensely!

PCOS Awareness Association is very informative and reaches out to those looking for help in dealing with PCOS. Even though this is a disorder only women can have it affects us all. After going to my first event I was so impressed with all the information provided from the invited speakers and doctors, the care and passion from the volunteers working the event. I left there thinking what can I do to help this wonderful organization, I’ve been volunteering since and it’s great to see each event more men like myself are getting involve. PCOSAA #UNO

I love PCOSAA and everything it represents. I'm honored to be part of something that is bigger than myself but also being able to share my struggles as we educate the world together. There may not be a cure yet but being in this fight, as a team, has definitely been empowering.

I personally know the founder, Megan Pearson and she has put her blood, sweat and tears into running this organization. She has selected a wonderful staff that shows up and shows out when it comes to getting things done. The dedication and devotion to bringing awareness to PCOS is something that Megan has been doing for well over 6 years and she will not rest until PCOS has the recognition and support that it deserves. Most recently PCOSAA has started hosting a bit annual conference and this platform has been a huge success. The conference has bring medical professionals into the community for a more personal conversation. PCOSAA has a strong community of woman and men that work together and enjoy activities like fitness challenge and so much more. I'm my opinion, this is one of the best; if not the best non-profit organizations that I have been happy to support.

PCOS Awareness Association has been a life saver. If I didn’t come across them via Internet, I probably wouldn’t be as far as I am today. Best nonprofit organization out here.

PCOSAA is an organization that provides a safe space for those who have PCOS and for those who love them. Not only a safe space but a value able resource.

PCOSAA has provided resources and information about a disease that has affected my life for years. Because of them I got in touch with a strong group of women who support each other and lift each other up while fighting our battles. They put out timely and updated information and they strive to inform women as young as possible to get a handle on this disease that causes infertility, cancer and many other devastating side effects to women. They are an amazing organization and I am so grateful they were founded.

I am so impressed with the organization and there is such an incredible need for an organization that serves women with PCOS. The association offers support, encouragement and information for women that often feel alone and ashamed. The staff that I have had the pleasure to interact with are professional and caring. I support the PCOS Awareness Association with gratitude and pride.
