“Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age, often causing irregular menstrual cycles, excess androgen levels, and ovarian cysts. It’s one of the most common endocrine disorders in women.
“Symptoms can include irregular periods, difficulty conceiving, and excessive hair growth (hirsutism), acne, and weight gain. While PCOS is a chronic condition, symptoms can be managed through lifestyle changes, medications, and fertility treatments.” AI Overview
According to Healthline: “Women with PCOS produce higher-than-normal amounts of male hormones. This hormone imbalance causes their body to skip menstrual periods and makes it harder for them to get pregnant.
“PCOS also causes hair growth on the face and body, and baldness. And it can contribute to long-term health problems like diabetes and heart disease.”
