Voilet, I am sending you a PM now...

It's really heartbreaking stuff. I have told those close to me that I have PGAD symptoms and they are so understanding. But it's some members of the wider community who make opening up about it really hard. A few women have talked to the media in a bid to spread awareness (i.e. it's more common than...
