What You Should Know About PCOS

Your body may be experiencing unusual symptoms. Periods could be irregular and heavy. You may be growing excessive hair in unwanted areas. You may have also been putting on the weight and getting headaches.

There could be any number of health conditions that cause the above symptoms, but a possibility is PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome).

If you have a slight suspicion it could be PCOS, the best course of action is to arrange an appointment with the doctor to get it diagnosed.

Why?

Left untreated, PCOS can lead to many serious and chronic health problems as detailed in the infographic below. Women with untreated PCOS have the potential for developing fatty liver disease, a higher heart attack risk and even endometrial cancer.

PCOS is widespread, with approximately 1 in 5 women having the condition and as many as 70% of women being undiagnosed.
