PCOS or Polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormonal disorder that affects women at reproductive age. Women diagnosed with PCOS may have excessive androgen ( male hormones) or prolonged or infrequent menstrual periods. In this condition, the ovaries may not release eggs regularly and/or develop follicles or small fluid collections.

It is still unknown as to what causes PCOS; however, with an early PCOS treatment and diagnosis, the doctor for PCOS treatment can reduce the potential risk of various other complications like heart diseases, type 2 diabetes, and other such medical conditions. Women who are trying to conceive but are not able to do so may have to undergo a test to ensure that they do not have PCOS.

Symptoms of Polycystic ovarian syndrome

Before you undergo the treatment of polycystic ovaries, the doctor will first understand the patient's symptoms. A woman may experience

• Irregular periods
  Some women experience prolonged, irregular, or infrequent abnormally heavy periods. It is also one of the most common signs of PCOS, which is very common in women. Often, women tend to overlook their periods' irregularities as a side effect of their stressful life and do not pay much attention to this front.
• Excess androgen
  In some cases, women may have elevated or excessive male hormone levels, resulting in excess hirsutism or body hair, facial hair, male-pattern baldness, and severe acne.
• Polycystic ovaries
  The Polycystic Ovaries Treatment in Delhi is also recommended when a woman has enlarged ovaries that contain follicles surrounding the eggs. Due to this, the ovaries may not function properly or regularly.

Causes of polycystic ovarian syndrome

Before you undergo the polycystic ovaries treatment in Delhi NCR, the doctor will first try to understand the cause of the problem. Some of the factors that are considered include

• Excess insulin
  The pancreas produces insulin so that the body can use sugar as its primary energy source. In some cases, the cells are resistant to insulin, due to which the insulin production within the body increases resulting in high blood sugar levels. Excess insulin also may increase the production of androgen, which can cause difficulty with ovulation.
• Low-grade inflammation
  Low-grade inflammation is the term that is given when the body produces white blood cell substances to fight different kinds of infections. Women with PCOS have a particular type of low-grade inflammation that acts as stimulants for polycystic ovaries during androgens' production. It can eventually lead to blood and heart vessel problems.
• Heredity
  Some women may also develop PCOS because of their genes. It can also exist if there is a family history for the same.
• Excess androgen
  The excess production of androgen results in acne and hirsutism because of the high levels present in the body.

The PCOS Treatment is often determined based on the causes, type of PCOS, patient age, etc.
