Let's talk androgens! Join the convo on PCOS on 10/23
The PCOSalon is a platform to discuss polycystic ovaries, hyperandrogenism, intersex, and overlapping health needs.
Do you have polycystic ovaries? You probably know someone who does.
6-13% of ovaries are polycystic, AND, 1-2% of all people are born with anatomical or hormonal variations noticeable enough to be labeled by medicine as intersex. These groups have, for a long time, been kept from each other, despite their common interests.
Across language and anatomical variations, we hear a lot of the same things about our health needs, medical mistrust, hair, and hormones. There’s some overlap here. And we’re getting into it!

This night is a platform for people to discuss Polycystic Ovaries/hyperandrogenism.
PCOS folks, allies, healthcare workers, intersex people with other anatomical variations, and all others are welcome, across whatever language they use.
Rad artists and healers from the U.S. and Chile will give short talks, followed by group discussion. We've got live Spanish interpretation in partnership with Brújula Intersexual.
