Sunday, 28 July 2024 By: TB Obwoge Women all over the globe are subjected to the whims of what men want them to be or to do. Why are men this way when it comes to women? Many seem to think their religion or cultures dictate how they should treat women, sadly mostly think women and children are only property, nothing more nothing less.

Feminism Has Lost Her Identity
Ladies and Gentlemen....welcome to my unpopular opinion.... again. I remember learning about the women's rights movement in school. I remember not understanding how the world had come to the conclusion that women were not equal to men, and why women had to fight for the right to work in the first place.

My Partner Has PCOS - What Should I Do?
It's hard having PCOS, so I can only imagine it's hard to be with someone with PCOS. I say this as a woman with (polycystic ovarian syndrome) PCOS and who also has a loving supportive partner that I am constantly apologizing to for my moods. If you are in a relationship with a woman who says that she has PCOS, it helps to know what that exactly means. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome has been known to affect relationships, the woman's self-esteem, and thus ultimately her confidence in even her partners.

Treatment of PCOS
What does treating PCOS look like? When talking about the elusive 'treatment' or 'cure' or 'fix' for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, and other female hormonal imbalances, there are no real steady answers in the medical field as to what would improve this. Different doctors will tell you different management symptoms. Some will put you on birth control and metformin if your periods are severely irregular and your body is showing signs of insulin resistance. Some will give you a diabetic diet and tell you to lose weight. Some will suggest gentle doses of hormones if your particular case involves your body being low in estrogen or progesterone. Herbs, supplements, and vitamins are also suggested.

Being A Woman (Sorta)
My body is never my own. It is the body of every woman who has ever had any rude comment to me to make herself feel better about her man staring at me wanting to get my number. I only wanted to tell her, "Hey, I'm not your enemy here". But would that ever make a difference?
