PCOS or the polycystic ovary
syndrome is a hormonal disorder among women where the
level of male hormones called androgens is on the higher
side. This is a condition where females develop cysts.
These cysts are fluid filled sacs in their ovaries, and
though in many cases, they do not cause any major
problems, but sometimes, these cysts can turn them
infertile - thus, the condition should never be
ignored.
There are several other
health issues that are faced by women with PCOS, such as
irregular periods, heavy or light flow during periods,
acne, sleep apnea, obesity, diabetes, insulin
resistance, growth of excess facial hair and hair on the
chest, growth of extra skin on the armpit and neck area,
mild to moderate pain and discomfort in the pelvic area,
and other health problems.
When a doctor is diagnosing a
patient, he/she will study the medical history records
and then conduct tests for measuring the enlargement of
the cysts and other tests. Treatment includes
conventional medications, natural therapies, and there
are other alternatives as well such as holistic
remedies. Some women also opt for a surgical procedure
such as hysterectomy, where the ovaries are removed or
both the ovaries and the cervix are removed.
If you are suffering from the
PCOS polycystic
ovarian syndrome, then you should be careful about
your diet and try to exclude sugar, high levels of
carbohydrates, saturated and trans-fats from her daily
diet. It is also important to exercise regularly and
reduce weight.
It is a good idea to opt for
holistic remedies when it comes to PCOS cure. These
remedies go to the root of the problem and eradicated
the contributing factors. This is something that
conventional as well as natural treatments fail to do,
as they just treat the
symptoms.
