Abstract: The “Time to Ovary-Act'' project creates opportunities for East Carolina University’s student population to gain understanding of women’s reproductive health, especially Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, or PCOS. A group of Honors students from ECU observed the lack of general knowledge in women’s reproductive health. If the student community is unaware of these health issues or the resources available for them, the resources will not be used and students may never have the opportunity to be diagnosed or treated, which could cause many long-term effects regarding their health. Student Health Services at East Carolina University has many available resources in addition to the numerous medical practices in the Greenville area that can be utilized by students. This project seeks to make students aware of these resources in order to keep students and their peers healthy.
