S2 Ep18: PCOS and the Taylor Swift Controversy

We're finally doing one of our most requested episodes, and we're joined by plus size and PCOS content creator ThatGirlSare to talk all things Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. It's something that affects 1 in 10 women, but doctors are constantly undermining people's symptoms because "pain is normal for girls" or "all your issues are caused by your weight". And even if you get a diagnosis, there's no treatment and support is limited, so in this episode we're talking through the reality of life with PCOS, diagnosis, symptoms, dealing with patronising doctors, and normalising body hair. Plus we have a much needed catch up Lauren's sexy instagram post, Disney's first plus-size female protagganist, and the controversy around Taylor Swift's Anti-Hero music video...
