About PCOD/PCOS
PCOD/PCOS stands for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD). It is a hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age, usually between the ages of 18 and 44. It is the most common endocrine disorder that affects women of reproductive age and is the leading cause of infertility in women. In general, it is estimated that 5-10% of women of reproductive age in the United States have PCOS.
PCOS takes place due to an imbalance of hormones in the body, primarily the hormones estrogen and progesterone. It is characterized by a variety of symptoms including irregular or absent menstrual cycles, excessive body and facial hair growth, acne, obesity, and infertility. It is important to note that each woman with PCOS may experience different symptoms, and some may not experience any symptoms at all.
Lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can help to reduce some of the symptoms of PCOS and help to regulate hormone levels. Medications such as birth control pills, anti-androgens, and metformin can also be in use to manage the symptoms of PCOS.

Book an Appointment
Irregular or Absent Menstruation
One of the most common signs of PCOD/PCOS is irregular or absent menstruation. This is due to the hormonal imbalance and the body's inability to produce a mature egg each month, causing the lack of a period or irregular ovulation.
Hirsutism
This is a result of too much androgen, such as testosterone, being produced by the ovaries. This can cause male pattern hair growth on the face and body, including facial hair, chest hair, and unwanted body hair.
Acne
Another result of higher androgen levels is the development of acne, which often persists into adulthood.
Weight Gain
PCOD/PCOS is correlated with weight gain, as the hormones make it difficult to lose weight or keep it off. Furthermore, an unhealthy diet can cause an exacerbation of PCOD/PCOS symptoms.
Hair Loss
PCOD/PCOS can lead to androgen-related hair loss, which can occur in both men and women.
Infertility
One of the leading causes of infertility in women is PCOD/PCOS, as the hormonal imbalance can prevent ovulation and make it difficult to conceive.
Polycystic Ovaries
PCOD/PCOS can cause the ovaries to become enlarged and have numerous, small cysts on their outer edges. This is known as polycystic ovaries and is often diagnosed during an ultrasound.
Causes of PCOD/PCOS
PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disorder) or PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome-filled sacs on the outer edges of an ovary. PCOS can lead to several complications such as infertility, acne, hirsutism and obesity. The major causes of PCOD/PCOS are as follows.
Hormonal Imbalance
1
The main cause of PCOS is an imbalance in the hormones, specifically that of androgens, estrogen and progesterone. This hormonal imbalance in the body can throw off the production of ovaries, interfere with regular ovulation, and cause irregular menstrual cycles.
Genetic Predisposition
2
PCOS most often runs in the family, suggesting a genetic component to the condition. Women with a close relative diagnosed with PCOS, are at an increased risk of developing the disorder.
Insulin Resistance
3
Insulin resistance is an impaired ability of the body to respond to the effects of insulin. This condition can cause an increase in the production of male hormones, thus leading to PCOS.
Inflammation
4
According to some studies, inflammation may also be a contributing factor to PCOS.
Stress
5
Stress has been linked to the development of PCOS. Women who are under a lot of stress are more likely to develop PCOS.
Lack of Physical Activity
6
Not exercising frequently can also be a contributing factor to PCOS. Exercise helps to regulate hormones in the body, helps the body to be more responsive to the effects of insulin, helps to reduce stress and is essential for maintaining a healthy weight.
Weight
7
Women who are overweight or obese are more likely to suffer from PCOS. The increase in body weight can also lead to an excess production of androgens, which can cause the symptoms of PCOS.
Risk factors for PCOD/PCOS
There are several risk factors with PCOS/PCOD as follows
- Family History
- Insulin Resistance
- Obesity
- Ethnicity
- Diet and Exercise
- Stress
- Age
A woman’s risk of developing PCOD/PCOS increases with age, particularly during her late teenage years and early twenties. This is due to higher levels of androgen hormones that can cause the symptoms associated with PCOD/PCOS.

- Clinical Diagnosis
- Hormonal Profile
- Ovarian Ultrasound
- Endocrine Tests
- Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is a procedure in use to examine the internal organs of the body, including the ovaries. If laparoscopy is in consideration for diagnostic purposes in a patient with suspected PCOD/PCOS, the doctor may take samples of tissue from the ovaries, uterus, and other areas. The results of the test can provide further confirmation of a diagnosis of the condition.
