Living with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can be exhausting. It’s a condition that comes with a constellation of symptoms that can touch many aspects of a woman’s health and life. Disruptions in hormones, insulin and androgen levels can lead to irregular menstrual cycles, acne, hair growth, weight gain, ovarian cysts and, for many women, challenges with fertility.

Abigail Wilson is a London-based writer, director, and actor whose work often explores emotional extremes and overlooked realities. We spoke to Abigail about the making of Overdrive, her award-winning short film Overdrive dives deep into the lived experience of PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder), using sound, stunts, and storytelling to express what words alone often can’t.

At Two Moons, we believe women deserve better information, support, and care through every hormonal phase of life, not just during pregnancy or after menopause. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce you to Lauren A. Tetenbaum, LCSW, JD, PMH-C: a therapist, writer, and former lawyer who specializes in women’s reproductive mental health and supports women through major life transitions.

Dear Two Moons Readers, I’m Justine Carino. In my group practice based in New York and Connecticut, my team and I help individuals, couples, and families reduce anxiety, improve relationships, and build lives that reflect their core values. I also support ambitious women navigating stress and perfectionism through coaching programs and I’ve seen firsthand how hormonal health plays a key role in emotional wellbeing. I’m grateful to share some of that insight with you here today.
