  1. HAYAAT.PK Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Is The Leading Cause OF Infertility In Women

  2. You may be unfamiliar with the term “polycystic ovary syndrome” but nowadays, a lot of girls and women are experiencing the symptoms of this syndrome. After knowing all the symptoms that are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, many women can relate to this disorder. So, without further due, let us know everything that is related to polycystic ovary syndrome. Here, it is noteworthy to mention that the best gynecologists or the best endocrinologists can professionally address this disorder.  • What Is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)?  • Polycystic ovary syndrome is caused by a hormonal imbalance that creates problems in the ovaries of a female. Female ovaries are responsible for releasing an egg every month as part of a healthy menstrual cycle. When polycystic ovary syndrome occurs, the egg may not be developed or released as it should during ovulation. The primary indication of PCOS is irregular or missed periods for several months. Missed or irregular periods is a serious health problem that requires consultation by the best gynecologists in Pakistan. It is necessary to treat PCOS as it can affect the overall health and appearance of a female.  • Women affected with PCOS tend to produce a higher number of male hormones (androgens), which result in missed periods, infertility, hair growth in the face and other parts of the body. In fact, hormonal imbalance is the major reason behind facial hair growth in women. Besides, PCOS is the leading cause behind infertility (inability to conceive a baby). In this disorder, the ovaries become enlarged due to the development of cysts and then it becomes difficult for a woman to get pregnant.  • Following are the prominent symptoms of PCOS: • Females with PCOS experience irregular menstrual cycle. They either will not have periods or may have periods twice a month with heavy bleeding. 

  3. Women with PCOS are more likely to have hirsutism: too much hair growth on the face, chin and other parts of the body.  • Severe acne on the face, cheeks and upper back.  • Hair loss on the scalp or thinning of the hair.  • Affected females can experience weight gain or difficulty while losing weight.  • Darkening of the skin around specific areas.  • Enlarged ovaries.  • Complications while conceiving a baby.  • If anyone of you is suffering from these symptoms, get yourself treated by one of the best gynecologists in Pakistan.   • What Are The Potential Causes Of PCOS? • So far, the exact cause of PCOS is unknown. However, the following factors can contribute to causing PCOS: 

  4. High levels of androgens: Generally, androgens are known as male hormones, however; women also release small amounts of androgens. The hormone androgen is responsible for developing male traits. When a woman has PCOS, she produces a higher amount of androgens than required. A higher amount of androgen levels in women prevent ovaries from releasing eggs during the menstrual cycle, which then causes hair growth and acne.  • High levels of insulin: Many females with PCOS have insulin resistance. Insulin resistance occurs when the body’s cells do not respond to insulin normally. Consequently, the insulin blood levels increase and then it may cause PCOS. With the passage of time, insulin resistance can also result in type 2 diabetes.  • Genes: Some studies have shown that PCOS runs in many genes that contribute to cause this condition.  • Inflammation: Excess inflammation can trigger higher levels of androgen which then causes PCOS.  • Treatment For Polycystic Ovary Syndrome • The best and natural way to address PCOS is to bring certain lifestyle changes such as diet, physical activities and weight loss. By losing weight, one can regulate the menstrual cycle and improve symptoms associated with PCOS. Apart from it, low-carbohydrate diets such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains can help in losing weight and maintaining the menstrual cycle.  • Another treatment to treat PCOS is medications prescribed by the best gynecologists or the best endocrinologists. The medications will help ovaries to release normal eggs and fix the hormonal imbalance. However, the optimal way to deal with PCOS is by making healthy lifestyle changes. 

  5. To wrap up • Without any doubt, it is clear that treating PCOS is way too important or else it can affect many aspects of a woman’s life. Untreated PCOS can cause infertility, weight gain, excessive hair growth, sleep apnea, depression and even endometrial cancer. In a nutshell, it can affect the overall physical appearance of women, therefore; addressing this disorder is crucial. • For the treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, you can consult the best gynecologists in Lahore through Hayaat.pk.
