Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder that affects the ovaries, leading to irregular menstrual cycles, excess androgen levels, and the formation of small cysts. Common symptoms include weight gain, acne, hair thinning, and difficulty in conceiving. If left untreated, PCOS can increase the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, and other metabolic disorders. Early diagnosis and lifestyle changes play a key role in managing the condition.
Treatment for PCOS focuses on symptom management through medication, hormone therapy, and lifestyle modifications. A healthy diet, regular physical activity, and stress management can help regulate hormones and improve overall well-being. With proper medical care and consistent lifestyle adjustments, women with PCOS can effectively manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
