A Story of Silent Battles, Resilience, and the Light Within
At twelve, Agalya notices a shadow on her neck—a stubborn mark that won’t fade no matter how hard she scrubs. What begins as a patch of confusion soon grows into a storm of unspoken pain: unexplained weight gain, erratic periods, darkening skin, and a growing sense of invisibility in a world obsessed with perfection.
Told with raw honesty and lyrical grace, Moon Girl follows the journey of a young girl grappling with the invisible burden of PCOS, a condition no one around her seems to understand. As her body betrays her in silence, Agalya learns to hide behind smiles and achievements, all while her inner world is collapsing.
But in the quiet of night, beneath a watchful moon, she writes. She questions. She hopes.
Through these reflections, Agalya begins a courageous journey of self-discovery—learning to listen to her body, embrace her truth, and reclaim her light.
Moon Girl is more than a coming-of-age story. It’s a powerful tribute to every girl who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or misunderstood. A reminder that even in our darkest phases, we are still whole. Still worthy. Still luminous.
