PCOS Treatment

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder that can affect ovulation, fertility, menstrual cycles, and overall health. At our clinic, we provide personalized diagnosis, lifestyle guidance, medication, and advanced fertility treatments to help women manage PCOS and improve their chances of a healthy pregnancy.

Signs and symptoms of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) can vary from woman to woman. A diagnosis of PCOS is usually made when at least two of the following signs are present:

Irregular Periods: Infrequent, irregular, or prolonged menstrual cycles are the most common symptom of PCOS. Women may have fewer than nine periods a year, more than 35 days between periods, or experience unusually heavy menstrual bleeding.
Excess Androgen: Higher levels of male hormones (androgens) may cause physical signs such as excessive facial or body hair (hirsutism), severe acne, and male-pattern hair loss.
Polycystic Ovaries: The ovaries may become enlarged and contain multiple small follicles surrounding the eggs, which can interfere with regular ovulation.

The exact cause of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is not fully understood. However, several factors may contribute to its development:

Excess Insulin: Insulin resistance can cause the body to produce more insulin than normal, increasing androgen production and making ovulation more difficult.
Low-Grade Inflammation: Women with PCOS often experience chronic low-grade inflammation, which may stimulate the ovaries to produce excess androgens and increase the risk of heart and blood vessel diseases.
Heredity: Research suggests that genetics may play an important role, and PCOS can run in families.
Hormonal Imbalance: Increased androgen levels produced by the ovaries can disrupt ovulation and lead to symptoms such as acne, unwanted hair growth, and irregular menstrual cycles.
