A chronic health condition is a slow toxin, charging your well-being quietly over time. Also, some of these serioPus health conditions possess the power to disrupt your vital bodily functions. Hence, addressing such serious health conditions is not just a priority but a necessity before they transform into something severe within you.
PCOS is one such well-kept secret and serious health problem that is mostly diagnosed in one in 10 women. Yet, this serious women's health condition is often underestimated and misunderstood. You can understand this as PCOS is a dynamic interplay of hormones causing mayhem inside the body, contributing to some other chronic health problems like heart disease and diabetes.

The abbreviation PCOS stands for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, a long-term hormonal disorder. In PCOS, the ovaries create abnormal and unregulated amounts of androgen that consequently form small fluid-filled cysts in women's ovaries. Primarily PCOS is triggered due to an imbalance in the production of androgen. In simple terms, Women with PCOS build higher-than-normal amounts of male hormones. This massive production of hormones causes some common symptoms, such as irregular periods and complexities in conceiving.
In addition, many women are suffering from PCOS but don't know it. Research has shown that over 70% of women affected with PCOS hadn't been diagnosed. PCOS directly affects the ovaries ( the reproductive organ that produces progesterone and estrogen)- these hormones work to regulate the monthly menstrual cycle. Ovaries also produce male hormones in small amounts called androgens.
PCOS triggers a group of symptoms which commonly include-
Fluid-filled cysts near ovaries
Skipped or irregular periods
High production of male hormones

PCOS is a chronic health condition that mostly does not get noticed at the initial stages, hence it's important to get a timely health check if you're having some common symptoms that we have mentioned above. However, there are a few ways to diagnose PCOS including-

PCOS is a hormonal disorder that is mostly triggered by insulin resistance. Hence, switching to healthy lifestyle habits is undeniably important for a patient. For example, weight loss to stay calorie-deficient is proven to be effective in combating PCOS. Even 5% - 6% of weight loss with healthy eating is proven to be a strong move in treating PCOS from scratch.
The primary focus of medication management is on reviving menstrual regularity. Pride IVF stands out as a leading provider of premier PCOS treatment in Delhi, renowned for tailoring each treatment plan to the individual needs and severity of the condition.
Birth Control Pills: Typically combining estrogen and progestin, these pills work to regulate estrogen levels and decrease excess androgen in the blood. This regulation not only helps in managing the menstrual cycle but also alleviates associated symptoms like acne and excessive facial hair growth.
Progestin Therapy: In certain instances, patients may undergo progestin therapy, involving the periodic intake of progestin for 10-14 days every 1-2 months. Apart from promoting menstrual regularity, this therapy also plays a crucial role in reducing the risk of endometrial cancer, a concern often heightened in individuals with PCOS.
