What Are The Symptoms of PCOS?

PCOS is a condition which results from a hormonal imbalance associated with irregular ovulation and menstruation, infertility, obesity and hirsutism. It is a condition which is suffered by many women around the world, however, what many people aren’t aware of is that ovarian cysts are a symptom of the disease; they are not the root cause. PCOS is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility, which means that infertility is the result of the absence of ovulation. It often goes unnoticed until a woman tries to get pregnant.

Symptoms of PCOS can include these symptoms, however, someone does not need to necessarily display all symptoms to be diagnosed with the condition. If you are experiencing any or all of these it is advised that you seek medical advice from your gynaecologist or your GP.

Irregular or no periods

Heavy and prolonged periods

Hirsutism (male-type body hair)

Androgenic alopecia (hair loss)

Acne

Obesity

Mood changes – PCOS can increase the likelihood of mood swings, depression, and anxiety

How We Treat Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Many people are diagnosed when they are young and carry it with them in the belief that it is an untreatable condition, as they don’t realise that it is linked to hormonal imbalances. However, PCOS is not a diagnosis for life, and many of the symptoms are reversible with the right treatment plan.

At the Marion Gluck Clinic we treat PCOS with a combination of nutritional advice, lifestyle changes, medications, and hormonal balancing with oestrogen and progesterone to improve many of the symptoms.

We closely monitor their hormonal profile, supported by pelvic ultrasound and relevant blood tests, in order to fully assess a patient’s needs. The condition can then be treated accordingly with a specific treatment plan for each individual. Everyone is unique and therefore the solution lies in a personalised approach and there is not a one size fits all treatment plan for PCOS.
