The polycystic ovarian
syndrome or PCOS is a hormonal imbalance that is seen
among women who are in the age group of 12 to 45 years.
As the name suggests, the condition refers to the
development of multiple cysts in the ovaries. Since, 1
in every 10 women in the world suffer from the PCOS syndrome,
it can be safely stated that this is among the most
common diseases. The syndrome is also popularly known as
Stein-Leventhal syndrome
Through PCOS research, it has been proved that
the PCOS symptoms are not the same for every woman. In
other words, it may appear different from one person to
another. There are those who may show a lot of symptoms,
and then there are those in whom no symptoms may be
visible. Here are some of the symptoms of PCOS - weight gain
, irregular or no periods, insulin
resistance, high cholesterol, excess hair growth, high
blood pressure, skin discoloration and other health
problems. Also keep in mind that the PCOS syndrome is
the leading cause for infertility among
women.
When a doctor diagnoses the
patient, he/she will check the medical history records,
and then go on to conduct blood tests and ultrasound for
the measurement of the size of the cyst. The size of the
cyst and also its nature is very important.
It is advisable to try holistic
remedies for PCOS cure. These remedies work very well as
they look into the root of the problem and all the
contributing factors and treat them. Once the root
causes go away, the symptoms vanish automatically.
Conventional as well as natural treatments just treat
the symptoms and not the root causes, and so, the PCOS
often returns.
