What is PCOS?

PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) is a hormonal disorder seen in women of reproductive age.

In this condition, the female ovaries produce more of the male hormones than the female hormones. Women with PCOS may have irregular or prolonged menstrual cycles, abnormal hair growth, acne development, weight fluctuations, and fertility problems.

PCOD (polycystic ovarian disorder) is when the female ovaries contain many partially immature or mature eggs, which later become cysts. PCOS is generally considered to be a severe form of PCOD.

Am I the Right Candidate for PCOS Treatment?

A gynecologist or endocrinologist will assess your symptoms and general medical health to determine if you have PCOS.

If you have symptoms associated with the condition and you have been diagnosed with PCOS, you could be a candidate for treatment if the symptoms are impacting your routine daily life, your fertility, or your long-term general health.

Causes of PCOS

The exact cause of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is not fully understood. However, several factors are known to contribute to its development:

  • High levels of androgens (male hormones) that may prevent normal ovulation
  • Genetic or hereditary factors, as PCOS often runs in families
  • Low-grade inflammation, which can stimulate the ovaries to produce androgens
  • Insulin resistance, leading to higher insulin levels that may increase androgen production

Symptoms of PCOS

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can cause a variety of symptoms, which may vary in severity from person to person. Common symptoms include:

  • Irregular menstrual periods
  • Heavy bleeding during periods
  • Missed periods or absence of periods
  • Acne
  • Excessive or abnormal hair growth (hirsutism)
  • Obesity or weight gain
  • Darkened patches of skin (acanthosis nigricans)
  • Thinning hair or hair loss
  • Skin tags, especially in the neck or armpits
  • Fertility problems

Diagnosis of PCOS

To diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a doctor—usually a gynecologist or endocrinologist—will perform a thorough assessment that includes your medical history, menstrual cycle details, and a physical examination to look for signs such as hair loss, excessive facial or body hair, acne, skin tags, or darkened skin.

Additional tests may include:

  • Pelvic exam: The doctor examines your reproductive organs for any abnormalities.
  • Blood tests: Hormone and glucose levels are checked to detect imbalances.
  • Ultrasound: Imaging of the ovaries and uterus to check for cysts or changes in uterine lining thickness.

A PCOS diagnosis is usually confirmed if two or more of the following are present:

  • Irregular, missed, or heavy menstrual periods.
  • Enlarged ovaries or polycystic appearance on ultrasound.
  • Signs of elevated androgens, such as acne, excessive hair growth, or lab-confirmed increased androgen levels.

Early diagnosis allows for timely management of symptoms and fertility planning.

PCOS/PCOD Treatment

At Aksigen IVF, you will be thoroughly assessed by top PCOS specialists in Mumbai, and a personalized treatment plan will be created based on your symptoms and future pregnancy plans.

If pregnancy is not currently planned, treatment options may include:

  • Lifestyle changes: Healthy diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and maintaining a healthy weight to control insulin levels.
  • Hormonal birth control methods: Pills, patches, injections, vaginal rings, or IUDs to regulate menstrual cycles, reduce acne, and prevent excess hair growth.
  • Androgen-blocking medications: Medications to reduce effects of excess male hormones, controlling acne and hair growth.
  • Metformin: Insulin-sensitizing medication to improve insulin processing, which can restore regular menstrual cycles.

If pregnancy is planned, treatment may include:

  • Ovulation induction medications: Oral medicines like letrozole and clomiphene, or injectable gonadotropins, to stimulate egg release and improve chances of conception.
  • Surgery: Ovarian drilling to remove androgen-producing tissue in the ovaries to restore ovulation.
  • In vitro fertilization (IVF): Eggs and sperm are fertilized in a laboratory, and the resulting embryo is transferred to the uterus, followed by a pregnancy test after two weeks.

Aksigen IVF provides effective PCOS and PCOD treatment in Mumbai, helping relieve symptoms and improve overall quality of life.

FAQ

Unfortunately, PCOS cannot be cured completely. However, the symptoms associated with the condition can be managed effectively by appropriate lifestyle changes, use of prescribed medications, and proper medical guidance.

Medicines are not always required but may be recommended to manage symptoms like irregular periods, insulin resistance, or hormonal imbalances. Common medications that may be prescribed include birth control pills, anti-androgens, and metformin.

Yes, PCOS can run in families and genetics may play a role in the development of the condition. If someone in your immediate family has PCOS, you may be at a higher risk of developing it as well. However, environmental and lifestyle factors also play an important role in the development of PCOS.

Yes, untreated PCOS can increase the risk of developing other health problems, like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, heart diseases, sleep apnea, endometrial cancer risk, etc. due to irregular menstrual periods.

Yes, many women with PCOS can still get pregnant. You will be asked to maintain a healthy body weight, balance your blood sugar levels, and get treated for any other PCOS symptoms by having a healthy lifestyle and taking the prescribed medications. In certain cases, fertility medications alone can help you get pregnant. If the medications do not work, you may be suggested to undergo IVF treatment.
