Polycystic ovary syndrome or
PCOS is a health problem that affects a large number of
women from all over the world. These women are in their
reproductive age and suffer from cysts in their ovaries.
The condition usually comes strongly correlated with
health issues such as infertility, insulin resistance,
obesity, abdominal or pelvic pain, excessive growth of
body hair, male pattern baldness, irregular period, and
many other health concerns.
Sex hormones like estrogen,
progesterone and androgens are required in a girl's body
for the regulation of ovulation and the menstrual cycle
.
When there is an imbalance and a rise in the level of
the male hormones (androgens), the women face problems
in ovulating and in having regular periods.
If the PCOS syndrome is left
untreated, it can result in severe health problems and
even in the fatal ovarian cyst cancer. So it would be a
mistake to leave it untreated. It would also be a
mistake to assume that the cysts would go away on its
own. Often they stay back to cause problems, and often
they could be very serious.
You must see a doctor for
proper diagnosis. The doctor will ask for some tests and
also an ultrasound scan to confirm the presence. If it
is confirmed that you are suffering from the ovarian
cyst syndrome, then the doctor will want to know the
size and the nature of these growths.
Holistic remedies are a very good
option. These remedies are better than the conventional
treatments because they delve into the root problem of
the PCOS syndrome
and offer the right
treatment. Conventional and natural remedies just treat
the symptoms, and so, the respite is never
permanent.
