Pcos or polycystic ovation syndrome
Most woman have heard of PCOS. They know that it involves the the ovaries. But what is it and why does it occur?
It is a hormonal issue where there tends to be more testosterone in a female where there supposed to be more oestrogen. Another contributing factor may be that if insulin in the system due to insulin resistance.
In some cases, a woman doesn’t make enough of the hormones needed to ovulate. When ovulation doesn’t happen, the ovaries can develop many small cysts. These cysts make hormones called androgens. Women with PCOS often have high levels of androgens. This can cause more problems with a woman’s menstrual cycle. And it can cause many of the symptoms of PCOS.
Treatment for PCOS is often done with medication. This can’t cure PCOS, but it helps reduce symptoms and prevent some health problems.
Common symptoms of PCOS include:
* irregular periods or no periods at all
* difficulty getting pregnant (because of irregular ovulation or failure to ovulate)
* excessive hair growth (hirsutism) – usually on the face, chest, back or buttocks
* weight gain
* thinning hair and hair loss from the head
* oily skin or acne
If you display any of the above or even have a suspicion speaks to your GP.
