Hello and welcome back to the second episode of Presenting PCOS. 

We are Presenting PCOS and the Patriarchy in this episode, where I speak with Ada Obani, founder of Cysters Advocates and Cysters in Nigeria 🇳🇬 

We will be discussing the patriarchal view of women in traditional Nigeria, and how the expectations of a woman as a child bearer can affect those who struggle with their fertility, namely with PCOS. 

I hope this conversation will be insightful for you. If you need further support and guidance as a result of this issue, the following may be useful:
