POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME (PCOS)

PCOS mis a common female health concern, affecting about 5% of women in reproductive age. It is a set of symptoms due to elevated androgens in females and linked to the presence of multiple cysts that form in the ovaries, visible with ultrasound.

PCOS does not affect just ovarian function, it affects many aspects of female physiology, including:

irregular menstrual cycles and fertility problems
overweight and insulin resistance
alopecia or hirsutism
acne
Insulin resistance means an ineffective response to insulin, the body is forced to secrete increasing amounts of insulin to compensate. Elevated insulin levels contribute to both ovulation defects and excess androgens that are characteristic of PCOS.
