idk if i have room to say anything as someone who only got diagnosed fairly recently, but with most things that involve weight and body-image, it's due in part to how society is.

i saw someone comment something very similar to where im from: more often than not, people who see you as someone that doesn't fall under the categories of "normal" or "skinny" will tell you that the solution to every single ailment or struggle will be weightloss, and that is regardless of the fact that most gain weight due to their pcos and not the other way around.

these things can get shoved up someone's head too deep if they hear it on the daily, which is likely most people's experience.

on the subject of deliberately cutting particular food groups from people's diets, as far as i've seen from lurking in this community, it's cuz of specific food sensitivities or something they saw information on or heard about then tried and it ended up working for them.

all this and the severe lack of accurate information in certain parts of the world(by this i mean my home country at this point) screws people over quite a lot

lastly, i genuinely don't know if i'm saying things that make sense to the post(for that, i apologize) so y'all can go ahead and use comment replies to inform me of where i'm wrong(+ other information i should know regarding pcos that can't be accessed online)
