syndrome?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that can affect a woman&#039;s menstrual cycle, her fertility, her hormones or aspects of her appearance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It can also affect her long-term health.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This information is about potential long-term health effects and does not cover specific treatment options for PCOS.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What are polycystic ovaries?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Polycystic ovaries are slightly larger than normal ovaries and have twice the number of follicles in one ovary (small cysts).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Polycystic ovaries are very common, affecting around 20 in 100 women (20%).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Having polycystic ovaries does not mean you have polycystic ovary syndrome.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>About 6 or 7 in 100 women with polycystic ovaries (6-7%) have polycystic ovary syndrome.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What are the symptoms of the syndrome?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Symptoms of the syndrome may include:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>irregular period or no period<\/li>\n<li>difficulty achieving pregnancy (reduced fertility)<\/li>\n<li>an increased amount of facial or body hair compared to what is normal for you (hypertrichosis)<\/li>\n<li>loss of hair from the head<\/li>\n<li>increased weight, rapid weight gain, difficulty losing it<\/li>\n<li>oily skin, acne<\/li>\n<li>depression and mood swings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Symptoms can vary from woman to woman.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Some women have mild symptoms, while others are more severely affected by a wider range of symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PCOS is a cause of fertility problems in women, but we won&#039;t cover them in this article.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You can get pregnant even if you don&#039;t have a period.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you do not want to become pregnant, you should ask your doctor for advice about contraception.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What causes polycystic ovary syndrome?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The cause of the syndrome is not yet known.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PCOS sometimes occurs more often in certain families.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If any of your relatives (mother, aunt, sister) have been diagnosed with PCOS, you may have a higher chance of developing it as well.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The symptoms of the syndrome are related to disturbed hormone levels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hormones are chemical messengers that control body functions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Testosterone is a hormone produced by the ovaries.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Women with PCOS have slightly higher than normal levels of testosterone and this is linked to many of the symptoms of the condition.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Insulin is a hormone that regulates the level of glucose (a type of sugar) in the blood.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you have polycystic ovary syndrome, your body cannot respond to the hormone insulin (also known as insulin resistance), so your glucose level is higher.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To avoid rising glucose levels, your body produces more insulin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Higher than normal insulin levels can lead to weight gain, irregular periods, infertility and higher testosterone levels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>How is PCOS diagnosed?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Women with PCOS often have different signs and symptoms and sometimes these come and go.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This can make diagnosing PCOS a very difficult situation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Because of this, it may, in some ladies, delay the diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>irregular, infrequent periods or no periods<\/li>\n<li>more facial and\/or body hair and\/or blood tests showing higher than normal levels of testosterone<\/li>\n<li>an ultrasound showing polycystic ovaries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What could PCOS mean for my long-term health?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You are at greater risk of developing any of the following long-term health problems if you have been diagnosed with PCOS:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insulin Resistance and Diabetes Mellitus<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If your blood glucose does not stay at normal levels, this can lead to diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For every ten women with PCOS, 1 in 2 (10-20%) will go on to develop diabetes mellitus at some point in their lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Without treatment, diabetes causes damage to your body&#039;s organs. If you have polycystic ovary syndrome, your risk of developing diabetes increases further if you:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You are over 40 years old<\/li>\n<li>You have relatives suffering from diabetes<\/li>\n<li>You developed diabetes during pregnancy (also known as gestational diabetes)<\/li>\n<li>You are obese (body mass index or BMI over 30).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you are diagnosed with diabetes, you will be given proper nutrition advice and depending on your sugar levels, you may need insulin tablets or injections.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Increased blood pressure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Women with PCOS tend to have high blood pressure, which is likely related to insulin resistance and being overweight, rather than PCOS per se.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>High blood pressure can lead to heart problems and should therefore be treated.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heart disease later in life<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The development of heart disease is linked to health conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#039;t have these predisposing factors, then there&#039;s no clear evidence that just because you have PCOS, you&#039;re more likely to die from heart disease than women who don&#039;t have PCOS.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you have a high cholesterol level you may be advised to take medicines (statins) to reduce the risk of heart problems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you are trying to get pregnant, then you should ask a specialist about taking statins.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cancer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With fewer periods (less than three a year), the endometrium (the inner lining of the uterus) can thicken and this can lead to endometrial cancer in a small number of women.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There are several ways to protect the lining of the uterus using the hormone progestogen.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Your doctor will explain your options.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These may include a five-day course of progesterone tablets every three or four months, taking the birth control pill or using the intrauterine contraceptive system (Mirena).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Your options will depend on whether you are trying to get pregnant.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PCOS does not increase the chance of breast, cervical, or ovarian cancer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Depression and mood swings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Symptoms of the syndrome can affect how you see yourself and how you think others see you. They can lower your self-confidence.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snoring and sleepiness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PCOS can lead to daytime fatigue or sleepiness. It is also associated with snoring.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What can I do to reduce my long-term health risks?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maintaining a healthy lifestyle<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The main ways to reduce your overall risk for potential health problems over time are as follows:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Have a healthy, balanced diet. This should include fruits and vegetables and whole foods (such as whole-grain bread, whole-grain cereals, brown rice, whole-grain pasta), lean meat, fish and chicken. You should cut down on sugar, salt, caffeine and alcohol (14 units is the recommended maximum units per week for women).<\/li>\n<li>Eat meals regularly, including breakfast irregularly.<\/li>\n<li>Exercise regularly (30 minutes, at least three times a week).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Your goal should be to maintain your weight at a level that is normal (BMI between 19 and 25).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BMI is the measurement of weight in relation to height.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you are overweight, it would be helpful to lose weight and maintain your weight at this new level.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you are obese (BMI greater than 30), discuss weight loss strategies, including weight loss medications, with your doctor.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Weight loss benefits include:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>lower risk of insulin resistance and developing diabetes<\/li>\n<li>lower risk of developing heart problems<\/li>\n<li>lower risk of uterine cancer<\/li>\n<li>more regular periods<\/li>\n<li>increased chance of getting pregnant<\/li>\n<li>reducing acne and reducing excessive hair growth over time<\/li>\n<li>improved mood and self-esteem.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regular (check-up) health checks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once you are diagnosed with the syndrome, you should be monitored to check for any early signs of the aforementioned health disorders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Women with PCOS over 40 should be recommended a blood sugar test once a year to check for signs of diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you are obese (BMI over 30) or have a family history of diabetes, you may be advised to check your blood sugar earlier than age 40.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#039;t had a period for a long time (more than 4 months), it&#039;s a good idea to see your gynecologist.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He may recommend further tests, including an ultrasound.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Talk to your doctor about how often you should check your blood pressure and when you should have blood tests for your cholesterol levels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Is there a cure?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There is no cure for polycystic ovary syndrome.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Medical treatments are aimed at the best possible management to reduce the symptoms or consequences of the Syndrome.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Medication alone has not been shown to be better than healthy lifestyle changes (weight loss and exercise).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Many women with PCOS successfully manage their symptoms, as well as the long-term health risks, without medical intervention (medication).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>They achieve this by eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly and generally maintaining a healthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>This information is based on the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (RCOG) www.rcog.org.uk<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These specific clinical guidelines aim to inform and improve the health care of our female patients.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Any comment, observation or question from you is welcome for the correct information of all our women.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div      class=\"vc_row wpb_row section vc_row-fluid\" style=' text-align:left;'><div class=\"full_section_inner clearfix\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\t<div class=\"vc_empty_space\"  style=\"height: 50px\" ><span\n\t\t\tclass=\"vc_empty_space_inner\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"empty_space_image\"  ><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What is polycystic ovary syndrome?
