WHAT IS PCOD/PCOS ?

PCOS is a health condition that affects the hormonal balance in women of reproductive age. The exact cause of PCOS is not well understood, but it involves an imbalance in the levels of certain hormones, particularly insulin and androgens (male hormones like testosterone). This hormonal imbalance can lead to a variety of symptoms and issues, including:

Irregular Menstrual Cycles: Women with PCOS often experience irregular periods, which may be infrequent, absent, or prolonged.

Ovulation Dysfunction: PCOS can disrupt the normal ovulation process, leading to infertility or difficulty conceiving.

Hyperandrogenism: Elevated levels of androgens may lead to symptoms such as acne, hirsutism (excessive hair growth in typically male-pattern areas), and male-pattern baldness.

Polycystic Ovaries: The ovaries may contain small, fluid-filled sacs called cysts, which are actually follicles that haven’t matured properly.

Insulin Resistance: Many women with PCOS also have insulin resistance, which can contribute to weight gain and an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes.

Metabolic Issues: PCOS is associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome, including issues such as obesity, high blood pressure, and abnormal lipid levels.
