About PCOS

Menstruation is an important activity of women's reproductive physiological function. Regular period is a sign of normal function of organ. Irregular periods are the outcome of imbalance of certain hormones. PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), also known as SteinLeventhal syndrome, is one of the most common endocrinological disorders in females. The diverse manifestations of PCOS start at an early age when a girl is maturing into a young woman.

Cause of PCOS

Medical experts found multiple factors behind the PCOS. It is believed that high level of male hormones (androgen) prevents the female hormones secretion from ovaries and production of eggs. In a recent study it is found that PCOS has genetic link. Insufficient absorption of insulin by cells increases the body's demand of more insulin which leads to more production of insulin from pancreas and causes high insulin level in blood. Excess insulin level triggers ovaries to produce more male hormones. It is found that obesity is a major reason for insulin resistance
