as I was discussing with @rahaeli.bsky.social the other day, the way the glp-1 hit my entire system and fixed like 8,000 seemingly disconnected issues I've struggled with for decades made it clear that my metabolic issues, my hormone issues, and my autoimmune issues were THROWING A RAVE TOGETHER.

and the way medicine so often completely ignores the metabolic aspect of PCOS (outside of yelling at people to lose weight so, again, they can Has Baby) is just so aggravating. LIFETIME OF RAGE BUBBLING OVER HERE.
