Palmer bravely let the world into her battle with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and is using her platform not only to shed a light on the syndrome but to let others who may have it or struggle with acne, in general, know that they are not alone. PCOS is common, affecting one to ten women of childbearing age, and is caused by an imbalance of reproductive hormones. The syndrome has many symptoms, but one of its most common symptoms is acne.
