There’s something in our food causing women to get pcos and look like men. While men have hormones to make them look more of a woman than women.

No hate or shade but men literally look more like women than women these days. Esp men that are transitioning and taking hormones to do so. Meanwhile women who were born women, (cisgender women). It’s like the hormones in food, and birth control are changing our body and face making us look masculine, giving us pcos, and ruining our feminine features . I’m starting a fast tomorrow I will only be eating raw organic fruits and vegetables, or home grown if I can do that as well. I’m trying to see something. I feel like women and our bodies are under attack. Why idk. I don’t mean to offend anyone I don’t know all the terminology out there. I just want to help my body. This will be hard being that I have Starbucks next door Taco Bell across the street, McDonalds across from Wendy’s, Hardee’s In the middle. It’s so sad there is no healthy fast food places with just real food. I almost want to just leave the US and save my self. I also think if I don’t start this detox tomorrow I won’t be here too much longer. I just can feel that something is going on with me, and I was borderline pcos right before covid. I lost 15lbs from a green detox and naturally healed but then I went back on fast food, and stress eating, it really should be a crime that this food is so addictive and easily obtainable. Healthy food should be everywhere too. It would just help people trying to heal from overeating, stress eating, and people that like to eat out. I know make healthy choices but imagine your taking bc to stop uterine bleeding, then bc makes you hungry like a pregnant women, but then you notice your arms start looking like a linebacker, your face looks manly now. I just want to heal. I use to have a tiny body tiny face, nothing manly about me at all. I know it’s hormonal, I know I have to detox

Insulin regulation affects the development of PCOS, so it's on the rise alongside diabetes. It's a condition of modern lifestyle. Neither birth control nor hormones in food are linked to PCOS. The 'masculinizing' effect on women with PCOS is minimal, with perhaps some more personal facial hair growth. Men are not turning into women and women are not turning into men and there's no set pattern for either, anyway.

Transgender issues affect fewer than 5% of the population, so the right needs to get off that dead, beaten horse. There's no epidemic of anything in this area.

There's nothing wrong at all with eating a healthy, clean diet and it can bring a lot of positive changes, but it's not going ward off condition nutrition has little role to play in.
Going to have to disagree with that. I have had PCOS since I was a teenager. I ate healthily and biked 20 miles a day and did gymnastics/trampoline daily. I still suffer from it, and nothing to help in sight. 😶

@Snowvixen I’m so sorry 😞 did you ever take bc? I know growing up eating school lunch being very active, yet family didn’t have the best nutrition. Then when I graduated I was put on birth control to combat dysfunctional bleeding. Then when I got older a doctor found borderline pcos in my blood work. Do you think something happened in your food, school lunch?, whatever we were exposed to growing up did this ?
@Lexiitexii I've been on BC, and other hormonal therapies. It's been a mess since it affects my other health issues. I ate school lunches until I went vegetarian as a teenager. I don't think so. I have always had it since I was 12. So it's hard to pin point it to only food. 😶

I agree very much to this. I want also to add, that the prices should be normal too. In Europe there're just so many nowadays green salads bars, smoothie bars, etc but the prices are crazy high, when they add labels such as "healthy" "green" "veggie" "eco -" and such...
I wish you luck in your fasting ❤️
I've experimented with many fasts myself and on my way towards balance I've found the best is to aim for 80-90% healthy eating and leave some space for a sweet or a less healthy choice now and then, so I don't get deprived and go back to totally unhealthy patterns. But I had to pass through some extreme fasts as well 🙂

Is this a long backwards way of you trying to tell us you need to get fit?
Lexiitexii · 31-35, F
@Queendragonfly Actually not it’s just me reaching out to women who struggle with pcos because I’m sure if you scroll down you will see that women that struggle with pcos struggle with losing weight. Then when you factor in birth control it also makes you gain weight. Then if your hormones are imbalanced and you bleed too much, then you need the medicine they give you that makes you bloat up. So actually no I’m just trying to see if I can heal with food instead of taking what the doctors give me. Even though I will have to fight my body which has been on birth control since I was 17. You know one time I bleed for 21 days I shouldn’t really be here.
Lexiitexii · 31-35, F
@Lexiitexii oh and while I’m trying to heal along with the millions on the planet, guess what there’s no healthy food options in sight. So when I’m working, or driving home from work, I’ll last about 10 restaurants who don’t have a veggie in sight besides a fried up potatoes. Gee thanks for asking.
Thats not really true. Well atleast for me i feel great i am half vegetrian now. My mental health is not so good but thats easy to fix imo. But i heard there is lead in some food
@req89hikowquou it's true, but we're All good with that.

My take away: If your a woman save your self, men as well . Something in our food is causing us to change. Women physically and men mentally. Read up on pcos it literally causes women to produce male hormones. I’m going to paste what Google describes it as. Pcos can be healed but you have to stop eating out go green, raw, and clean organic food. Immediately. The paste > Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition in which the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of androgens, male sex hormones that are usually present in women in small amounts

@Lexiitexii It may not be the food. It could be the air we breathe. Maybe it's not the air, it could be the water we drink. Maybe it's not the water, it could be the radiation from cellphones. Maybe it's our modern lifestyles. Perhaps it's the evolution of humans.

But if we’re all eating the same food doesn’t it just balance it out??
Lexiitexii · 31-35, F
@Quetzalcoatlus I think it mostly affects women physically and men mentally. Like men are very emotional, crying more, women starting to look and act very manly. Pcos symptoms literally describe having to too much male androgen hormones.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
There is almost too much to unpack here.
justanothername · 51-55, M
@MarkPaul It’s called over thinking the small issues in life.
Lexiitexii · 31-35, F
@MarkPaul I know it was a vent session. What I’m saying is doctors can prescribe hormones to a transitioning man that make him look more feminine and beautiful than a woman. Meanwhile natural born women are being ruined by birth control, and pcos. Basically the things they prescribe women to so called treat us ruin or hormones and give us pcos and wipe out our estrogen. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a problem with hormones that happens during the reproductive years. If you have PCOS, you may not have periods very often. Or you may have periods that last many days. You may also have too much of a hormone called androgen in your body.

What is “pcos?”

Avoid junk food. Screws up everyone
specman · 51-55, M
I don't see women looking manly
Lexiitexii · 31-35, F
@specman I could post a before and after I noticed that after my hormones became imbalanced by food, and weight gain. While also doing things and taking things doctors prescribed and suggested, I started looking less feminine and more masculine in the face. A lot of women are struggling with this condition called pcos in the US. Yes I understand diet plays a huge role but the things doctors precibe women cause them to be very hungry like a pregnant women causing us to over eat and only think about food.

Democrats like their women to have a penis.
@MrBrownstone and Republicans don't fight pollution out of principle.
Good thing reproduction isn't important.
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@Roundandroundwego When are Democrats going to give up private jets to fight pollution?
@MrBrownstone never. Good point. The planet must die. Americans can't politics so whatever!
