PCOS & PCOD
Our team of experts can help you identify and deal with PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) and PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome). PCOD is a medical condition in which cysts are formed gradually in the ovary when a woman’s ovary produces immature or partially mature eggs in large numbers. Due to this, the ovary becomes large and secretes a large volume of male hormones (androgens) causing infertility, irregular menstrual cycles, hair loss and abnormal weight gain. PCOD can be controlled through diet and lifestyle modifications. PCOS is a metabolic disorder in which a woman is affected by hormonal imbalance in her reproductive years (between ages 12 and 51). Due to the increase in the level of male hormones, a woman might skip menstrual periods or have irregular ovulation, which thereby makes it difficult to conceive. A woman may also have abnormal hair growth on the body and face simultaneously. PCOD can lead to heart disease and diabetes as a long-term effect. PCOS is a serious medical condition, and it requires proper medical attention or surgical treatment.
Many women have PCOD or PCOS but they are not aware of it. We help you detect the symptoms early so that you can treat them soon.
