​

My name is Ruveen and I live with PCOS. Most people don’t seem to understand the implications of this and most of my life growing up I was always told that I must be overweight because I eat too much.

 

As many know, this can lead to feelings of inadequacy and body image issues. Fast forward some years later, after a lot of research and trying to understand what was happening in my body, I was finally able to understand that my issues were hormonal and were never going to go away until I made some serious lifestyle changes.

​

It took me almost three years to conceive and have my baby boy. Most women with PCOS are still struggling with infertility issues, weight gain and acne with only band-aid solutions handed to them. That’s when I knew I had to make people more aware about PCOS. Society made it so difficult to accept myself for who I am. What’s worse is that people you are most close to never truly understand what is going on and unfortunately some never will.

​

Through my blog posts, I hope to create awareness and shed some light on the situation. With my background as a Pharmacist, I feel I have more information at my fingertips than others and I want to pass that information on to women who are in my situation.

 

I offer consultation services and life coaching so that we can get to the bottom of  YOUR hormonal issues and work towards healthy weight loss goals, mental health awareness and a more positive attitude all around.
