The PCOS Diaries
About
The Face behind The PCOS Diaries!
Hi friend, I’m Libby 🤍
I’m a wife, a step mama, a small-town girl, and a woman walking through the messy, emotional, hope-filled journey of PCOS and infertility. I created The PCOS Diaries because I know what it feels like to sit in silence with questions, frustration, and a heart that longs for a baby. I know what it feels like to look in the mirror and feel like your body is working against you. And I know how lonely it can feel to be in the “in-between”—grateful for what you have but still aching for what you’re praying for.
If that’s you… you are not alone here.
Outside of this journey, I’m also:
-
a wife to my husband Trey
-
a step mama to my sweet girl Alma
-
a bookkeeper for a construction company
-
a woman learning how to take better care of her body, one small habit at a time
Life is full, busy, and sometimes chaotic—but I’m learning to find beauty in the middle of it.

My Story
I was diagnosed with PCOS at 13 and have faced the reality of:
-
irregular cycles
-
weight gain that feels impossible to control
-
fatigue that hits out of nowhere
-
unwanted hair and skin struggles
-
and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with trying to conceive.
I’m already a mama to my beautiful Step-daughter, Alma, and being her mom is one of the greatest blessings of my life. But my husband Trey and I are praying and believing for a child that is mine—and this journey of infertility has stretched my faith in ways I never expected. Yes I am Alma's mom, but I am not at the same time. I'm sure some of you understand exactly what I mean by that.
Some days I feel hopeful and strong.
Other days… I feel exhausted, discouraged, and just plain overwhelmed.
And this blog is where I bring all of that—the good, the hard, and the honest.
Why I Started The PCOS Diaries
I started this space for women who are:
-
tired of feeling like their body is broken
-
overwhelmed by conflicting PCOS advice
-
struggling with weight, hormones, and confidence
-
walking through infertility or waiting to conceive
-
holding onto faith but sometimes wondering “why not me?”
Here, you’ll find a mix of:
✨ real-life updates from my journey
✨ simple, practical habits that help my PCOS
✨ budget-friendly wellness ideas
✨ faith, prayer, and encouragement in the waiting
✨ reminders that your worth is not defined by your diagnosis
My Faith
My relationship with God is what carries me through this journey.
I don’t have all the answers. I don’t understand every delay. But I do believe that God sees me, He hears my prayers, and He is working—even when I can’t see it yet. I also believe that God made me this way for a reason. No I may not understand, and sometimes, yes I do question "Why me" but I know God knows what is best.
If you’re someone who leans on faith (or even if you’re just curious about it), you’re welcome here. No pressure, no perfection—just grace.
My Heart for You
If you take anything from this space, I hope it’s this:
You are not broken.
You are not behind.
You are not forgotten.
Your body may be struggling—but your worth has never changed.
And even in the waiting… there is still purpose, growth, and hope.
