Sitting at lunch yesterday, reading a chapter on blogging in “The New Rules of Marketing and PR,” I realized I have been rather reticent to blog about my experiences with polycystic ovarian syndrome. It hit me like a brick wall — the big “WHY?” It makes no sense, as I publish a magazine all about PCOS, have spoke to newspapers, conferences, and the like about my experiences with the syndrome, and yet it’s taken me until NOW to finally start a blog. Perhaps it’s laziness. But as I’m snarfing down my chicken fried steak, I realized there were so many things I can speak to regarding PCOS that I can’t necessary discuss in the forums I’ve mentioned. DUH! These moments of clarity are always a bit astounding to me.

Since this is the, ahem, inaugural post, I can’t help but make the usual marketing pitch about the blog’s posts, which I’m sure will keep you raptly captivated…(got the hipwaders out yet)? Seriously, I hope and invite you to return to this blog on a regular basis. PLEASE offer your RELEVANT commentary. I plan to speak to everything from my personal experiences with PCOS to how both the medical community as well as various markets seem to be missing the mark on working with and serving the needs of the PCOS patient (as well as their loved ones, friends, colleagues, etc.).
