Chloe Madeley addresses 'unpleasant' reaction to supporting friend with health condition

“It’s quite astonishing to me that a few women responded to my comment with varying degrees of ‘That’s not the same thing?!’ and ‘One cyst doesn’t mean she has PCOS!’

“A tone developed, and not a particularly pleasant one.”

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition that affects how a woman’s ovaries work.

As stated on the NHS website, the main features of PCOS are irregular periods and excess androgen, which means there are high levels of male hormones in your body.
