About 1 in 10 women in the
reproductive age all over the world are faced with the
polycystic ovarian syndrome or PCOS, making the issue
quite a serious one. There are those who believe that
the figure could be much more. And thus, the chances
are, you could be a victim as well.
This is actually a hormonal problem
where the woman develops multiple small cysts in
her ovaries. This problem comes with high chances of
leading to infertility. It is found that a high level of
male hormone androgens can lead to the growth of these
cysts. But there could be many other causes as well such
as a genetic predisposition, poor dietary choices, a
weakened immune system, accumulation of toxins in the
digestive tract (including environmental toxins),
insulin resistance and obesity.
