Ringworm is a
common skin disorder that is not caused by any
ring-shaped worm, but results from a fungi which grows
and multiplies rapidly on the body (tinea corporis),
scalp (tinea capitis), groin (tenea cruris) or feet
(tenea pedis) which is also known as athlete's
foot).
Although one
can be infected with the fungi through direct
skin-to-skin contact with contaminated personal items
such as combs, lingerie, etc as well as unwashed
clothing, shower or pool surface, a great majority of
women who suffer from ovarian cysts also complain about
being infected with ringworm.
Though
apparently, there seems to be no relationship between
ringworms and cysts, which are seen in the ovaries,
but there is indeed a
relationship.
Actually, PCOS or the ovarian cyst syndrome
can cause some
metabolic disturbances that can be the reason for the
symptoms of ringworms. What happens is that, those who
have PCOS overproduce testosterone, which is the male
hormone, and because of this, there can be weight gains,
excessive body hair, acne, and hair loss that are
similar to males as well. There can be problems of
menstruation as well.
Ringworms can
be contagious, and so if your ringworms are because of
ovarian cysts, you will need to treat the cysts and not
the ringworms. Because only when you treat the causes
effectively, can the symptoms go
away.
Though there are natural treatments for PCOS and conventional medications as well, but they do not give a lasting cure. This is because, they make the mistake of treating the symptoms, without treating the root causes. It is only holistic remedies that eradicate the root causes and thus, the results are always permanent. You must thus opt for holistic remedies.
