Polycystic ovary disease is a
common health problem that affects thousands of women
from all over the world in their reproductive age. The
exact cause for the disease, which is also referred to
as the polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), is not known
clearly, but what we know is that, there are many
contributing factors.
Females also produce a
hormone called androgens, even if these are known to be
only male hormones. However, when a woman produces
androgens in excess, there is an imbalance, and this has
high chances of interfering with the ovulation process.
The eggs are not developed and released normally, and as
a result of this, they can turn into cysts. When there
are a number of cysts in the ovary, the condition is
known as the polycystic ovarian syndrome or PCOS.
Through PCOS research, it has been found that high
insulin levels in the body of a woman can lead to
increased levels of androgens.
There are several health problems
associated with this condition which include pain in the
pelvic area, acne, heart and liver problems, male
pattern baldness, sudden growth of excess hair, abnormal
bleeding from uterus, high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, and even ovarian cyst cancer
. The problem
can also be a hereditary one.
If you are suffering from the polycystic ovary
disease
, your doctor may first do nothing in the
expectation that the cysts will naturally go away.
However the doc cannot do that if the situation is
complicated. The professional will recommend surgery or
medications. In the conventional approach however,
mostly the symptoms are treated, whereas the root causes
remain unresolved. For this you will need to turn to
holistic remedies. You will need to treat the root
causes to get a permanent remedy and only holistic
remedies can do this.
