Among women of reproductive age, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder. PCOS patients may have irregular or prolonged menstrual periods or excessive levels of male hormones (androgen). It is possible for the ovaries to develop numerous small collections of fluid (follicles) and not release eggs on a regular basis.

  1. It's a PCOS Party What are PCOS Symptoms? | It's a PCOS Party June 21, 2022  Among women of reproductive age, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder.  PCOS patients may have irregular or prolonged menstrual periods or excessive levels of male  hormones (androgen). It is possible for the ovaries to develop numerous small collections of fluid  (follicles) and not release eggs on a regular basis. PCOS Symptoms: When a woman reaches puberty, she begins to develop signs and symptoms of PCOS. It is  possible that PCOS develops later, as a result of substantial weight gain. There are a variety of signs and symptoms associated with PCOS. PCOS is diagnosed when at  least two of these symptoms are present: Periods  that  are  irregular.  PCOS  is  characterized  most  commonly  by  irregular,  infrequent, or prolonged menstrual cycles. Some people have fewer than nine periods  a year, more than 35 days between periods, and abnormally heavy periods. A high level of androgen. Physical signs of elevated levels of male hormones can  include excessive facial and body hair (hirsutism), and occasionally severe acne and  baldness. Ovaries with polycystic cysts. There may be follicles that surround your eggs in your  ovaries. Consequently, you may not get regular periods.

A number of factors cause polycystic ovarian syndrome. PCOS is not fully understood. It is believed that genetics plays a role. PCOS can also be caused  by the following factors: A  high  level  of  androgens  prevents  ovaries  from  producing  eggs  (ovulation),  causing  irregular  menstrual  cycles.  The  ovaries  can  also  develop  small,  fluid­filled  sacs  due  to  irregular  ovulation.  Excessive  androgen  also  leads  to  acne  and  excess  hair  growth  in  women.   In case of insulin resistance, the ovaries produce and release male hormones (androgens)  due to increased insulin levels. PCOS symptoms are worsened by increased levels of the  male  hormone,  which,  in  turn,  suppresses  ovulation.  Sugar  (glucose)  is  processed  by  insulin and used for energy by your body. A high glucose level in your blood is the result of  insulin resistance, which stops your body from processing insulin correctly. Diabetes does  not  always  accompany  insulin  resistance,  but  insulin  resistance  can  lead  to  diabetes.  Obesity and overweight can also cause insulin resistance. Having a high insulin level, even  if your blood glucose is normal, indicates insulin resistance.   Inflammation of low intensity: PCOS patients tend to have chronic low­grade inflammation.  Tests such as measuring C­reactive protein (CRP) and white blood cells, which indicate  inflammation in the body, can be performed by your healthcare provider.
