PCOS or Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome is a hormonal imbalance in females. The hormonal imbalance leads to problems in the ovaries. As we know ovaries help in the production of eggs every month. If someone is suffering from Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome, ovulation could be compromised. It can occur at any time post-puberty. Most women who are suffering from PCOS don’t know it in the first place.

It could also lead to infertility or fluid-filled sacs in the ovaries. Three of the major symptoms people face are-

A. Hormonal Imbalance (prone to have more male hormone. Leads to excessive hair growth or pattern baldness. Could also lead to acne)
B. Cysts in ovaries (can only be detected by sonography)
C. Irregular Periods or Missed Periods

PCOS

Symptoms of PCOS

1. Irregular Periods/ Missed Periods: If you have irregular periods (also including periods that come too frequently, not frequent enough, or not at all)

2. Hyperpigmentation: If you start noticing excessive darkening along with your neck or your genitals, it could be a sign of PCOS.

3. Weight Gain: If you’re having difficulty losing weight or are obese, chances of this syndrome is higher.

4. Acne

5. Excessive Hair Growth/ Hair Thinning (male pattern baldness)

PCOS can only be diagnosed by a medical practitioner. 
Symptoms of PCOS

How to treat PCOS?

PCOS cannot be cured, however, it can be managed.

1. Weight loss is the most effective way to treat it. A low carbohydrate diet is often successful as it helps drop weight and at the same time keep insulin in check.

2. Medication prescribed by your doctor. Mostly these are birth control pills, but a doctor can best assess your case and prescribe accordingly.

Bottomline

In case you have any of these symptoms, it is best advised to see a gynecologist immediately. If left untreated this could also lead to several other health problems.

  • Emolene  the cream that everyone is talking about  Thanks to  urshaynesss and her gorgeous skin        This cream was introduced to me by my elder sister  She was pregnant and it was prescribed to her for excessive dryness by her doctor   This cream is ideally suitable for normal to extremely dry skin  But somehow it has been working for people with oily skin as well  It could probably be due to the fact that it is a lightweight water based cream   I   ve used it mostly for my hands because they tend to dry every time I do the dishes  And it works amazing in moisturising them   Now this cream is a prescription cream  which is why you   ll only find it at a chemist   s store  It comprises of two ingredients  Propylene Glycol and Diazolidinyl Urea                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         is a great moisturiser  humectant  It also prevents the product from freezing or melting in extreme temperatures  It also helps penetrate the actives in your skin better                                                                     is an anti microbial preservative that preserves the product and does not let it go bad quickly  It can cause skin irritation for some people  It is safe to use at 0 5  or less otherwise it can release formaldehyde   Emolene however is a clinical formulation and recommended by dermatologists  Hence considered safe to use  Read the comments by  pure bubbles skincare to read more about this preservative   Doctors prescribe this cream for kids who suffer from dry  flaky skin  Making this quite versatile   Did you try Emolene  What are your thoughts on it
