Telling my boyfriend about pcos
Hey, so I’m 22 woman and I have pcos. I am in a relationship with my boyfriend for 10 months. He is my first boyfriend so I’m nervous and don’t want to “put him off”. He knows I’m on medication and have issues with my period, however he doesn’t know I have a diagnosis of pcos and issues with facial hair growth. He has said once about hair on my upper lip and I said it happens sometimes. I’m embarrassed that I have the hair around my face it’s the main concern for me. We don’t sleep over often, however, when we go away for a few nights I always wake up early and shave so it’s smooth and feel self conscious of it. I feel embarrassed about the fact I have facial hair
Background: I have been shaving everyday since I was 18 or so and I am taking medication for the last year to manage my symptoms. I take metaformin and spiraldacton. I am also currently getting laser hair removal on session 2 (he doesn’t know)
Any advice or comments on telling him would be appreciated
