UNDERSTANDING MORE ABOUT PCOS:
PCOS stands for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. It is a hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age. In PCOS, the ovaries may develop small cysts (fluid-filled sacs) and fail to regularly release eggs. Instead, the eggs may remain in the ovaries, leading to hormone imbalances.
SYMPTOMS OF PCOS (these can vary but often include)
Irregular menstrual periods: Women with PCOS may have infrequent or prolonged menstrual cycles, or they may experience heavy bleeding.
Hyperandrogenism: This refers to higher levels of androgens (e.g., testosterone) in the body, leading to symptoms such as hirsutism (excessive hair growth on the face, chest, back, etc.), acne, and male-pattern baldness.
Polycystic ovaries: On ultrasound imaging, the ovaries may appear enlarged and contain multiple small cysts.
Weight gain: Many women with PCOS may struggle with weight gain or have difficulty losing weight.
Infertility: Irregular ovulation can make it harder for women with PCOS to conceive.
Metabolic issues: Insulin resistance associated with PCOS can increase the risk of type 2 diabetes and other metabolic disorders.
Mood changes: Some women with PCOS may experience mood swings, depression, or anxiety.
Since PCOS is a complex condition, it’s essential for individuals experiencing symptoms to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis
