What is PCOS?
PCOS, or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, is a condition in which a woman’s ovaries produce higher-than-normal levels of androgens (male hormones). This hormonal imbalance can interfere with ovulation and cause multiple small fluid-filled sacs (cysts) to form on the ovaries. PCOS affects 1 in 10 women during their reproductive years and is a leading cause of infertility.
Causes of PCOS
The exact cause of PCOS is unclear, but the following factors play a significant role:
High Androgen Levels: Excessive androgen production disrupts ovulation, leading to irregular periods and the formation of ovarian cysts.
Insulin Resistance: Insulin resistance elevates insulin levels, which increases androgen production and affects ovulation.
Excessive Weight: Obesity exacerbates PCOS symptoms and can be both a cause and consequence of the condition.
Genetics: Women with a family history of PCOS are more likely to develop the condition.
Low-Grade Inflammation: Chronic low-grade inflammation can stimulate androgen production in the ovaries.
