Eve Waruingi was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) during high school.
Waruingi, who lives in Nairobi, Kenya, was put on oral contraceptives to help regulate her period and manage other symptoms. But as she reached her 20s, the medication stopped working, and she began experiencing extreme pelvic pain and gaining weight.
“It has been so frustrating,” she said.
