G'day and Welcome to WitchyKat's Kloset!

Here is a PCOS Support Sticker I made.

Aqua colored wording on the sticker reads:
"I provide support to someone with PCOS"

There is a faint pink shadow behind the wording,
which is best seen on an all white background.

There is also 3 (three) images on the sticker..
Two pink colored girl shape silhouettes, and an
aqua (or teal) colored ribbon. (Teal is the ribbon
color for PCOS and Ovarian Cancer.)

It has a transparent background.

And no firm visible border.

The sticker's measurements are 232x201 pixels.

Sticker is shown below three times at full size:-
on a black background, white background, and no background.

Please Note:-
The sticker you buy does not have
the black EXAMPLE word on it.

So, What is PCOS?
(a description, written by me - June 2008)

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome/Disease is a reproductive disorder.
Basically, the affected female has little cysts growing in her
ovaries and this creates a hormonal imbalance which can cause
a number of side effect symptoms. Some of these are acne, male
pattern hair growth, and "alopecia" (balding of the head); all
of these caused by too much testosterone, also there is increased
insulin resistance which if untreated develops into diabetes.
And it can of course, interfere with her menstrual cycle also.

It is a complicated Disease, each woman's condition is individual.
A female could have cysts on her ovaries and have no other symptoms.
And in other women, it can cause the added symptoms listed above;
but not every woman will have every symptom, it just depends how
well her body copes with the strain of a hormonal imbalance.

I have read that it is hereditary; but apparently in males, the
only symptoms it creates is early balding, and perhaps diabetes.
There is no cure; but most, if not all of the symptoms are "manageable".
1 in 10 women have this (and many don't know they have it).
I am one of them.
