PCOD / PCOS: Treatment

Are you suffering from PCOD/PCOS? Well, let’s find out what PCOD or PCOS is and how Baby IVF Fertility Clinics is the best PCOD/PCOS treatment Centre in Delhi.

PCOD / PCOS

Polycystic ovarian syndrome or PCOD / PCOS is a common hormonal disorder that affects the ovaries of women in a reproductive age group i.e., 18-45 years. According to our experts at Baby IVF Fertility Clinics

approx. 10% of the women in the world are dealing with this condition which can be complex, chronic and disturbing.

Difference between PCOD and PCOS

PCOD

PCOD is a general disorder, and 10% of the world’s female population is affected by it.

In PCOD, ovaries produce multiple immature or partially mature eggs, which happen due to an unhealthy lifestyle, weight gain, stress/anxiety, or hormonal imbalance in the body.

During PCOD, fertility in women is not affected. A woman can still ovulate and conceive with little medical assistance.

PCOD doesn’t have any severe complications.

PCOS

About 0.2% to 2.5% of women worldwide suffer from PCOS, a complex medical disorder.

Compared to PCOD, PCOS is a more severe metabolic condition that can result in anovulation—the cessation of egg release from the ovaries.

A woman’s fertility may be severely impacted by PCOS. It is difficult to get pregnant when a woman does not ovulate frequently. There are always risks associated with pregnancy, such as the possibility of miscarriage or an early birth, among others.

Serious side effects from PCOS include heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and an increased risk of endometrial cancer in later life.

Common Symptoms of PCOS / PCOD

Major Infertility
Non-consistent times
Intervals of Absence or No Severe or Excruciating Times
Darkening of the skin or dark patches (around the neck, near the groin, or beneath the breasts)
Unwanted or excessive body and facial hair, mainly in areas where men are more likely to grow hair.
Severe acne; obesity (mostly from weight gain associated with PCOS)
Thinning hair
fatigue

Why do you have to face these symptoms in PCOD/PCOS?

A woman’s body may create more testosterone, a male hormone that is produced in very minute amounts in females and further complicates ovulation if her insulin levels rise.

Women with PCOD/PCOS have higher levels of androgens than normal. Acne, excessive hair growth, irregular menstrual periods, ovulatory dysfunction, and obesity are caused by this high testosterone level.

What are the complications of PCOS?

Type 2 Diabetes
Gestational Diabetes
Miscarriage or premature birth
Anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem (mostly due to hair and weight issues)
Eating disorders
Sleep Apnea
Metabolic syndrome: high blood sugar and risk of cardiovascular diseases
Endometrial cancer
Ovarian cancer
Breast cancer

When to Visit a PCOD/PCOS Doctor?

You should speak with your healthcare professional as soon as possible if you are experiencing irregular periods, infertility, severe acne, excessive hair loss, excessive hair growth, or obesity in order to prevent further issues.
