Armpits For August! · 23 August 2012

Verity is a self help group set up in 1997 to help women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The charity is completely self funded and is the only national charity for women with PCOS. PCOS affects millions of women in the UK and worldwide (approximately 5-10 per cent) .

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have a polycystic ovary, and I am one of the relatively lucky people whose life and body it doesn't have a complete hold over. PCOS is a syndrome that  can effect your weight, your hair growth, your moods and your skin as well as many other symptoms. In support of my friends with PCOS I am growing out my armpit hair to challenge perceptions about female body hair. seeing as I am also a lady who regularly dyes her hair bright colours, if I reach my goal of £100 I will dye my armpit hair GREEN!

So please dig deep and donate now.
