Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age. It is characterized by the presence of small cysts on the ovaries, hormonal imbalances, and irregular periods. PCOS can impact a woman’s fertility, appearance, and overall health. At Blessings Clinic, our skilled gynecologists, Dr. Gittika Sharma and Dr. Aastha Aggarwal, specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS, offering a personalized approach to managing this condition.

Symptoms of PCOS:

  • Irregular periods: Infrequent, prolonged, or absent menstrual cycles
  • Excess androgen levels: Increased levels of male hormones, causing acne, excess facial or body hair (hirsutism), or hair thinning on the scalp
  • Polycystic ovaries: Enlarged ovaries with multiple small cysts
  • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight

Diagnosis and Treatment: At Blessings Clinic, we perform a thorough evaluation to diagnose PCOS, which includes:

  • Hormonal testing: Blood tests to check hormone levels
  • Ultrasound scans: To detect the presence of cysts on the ovaries and assess their size
  • Physical examination: To check for symptoms like excess hair growth or acne

Once diagnosed, our team will develop a customized treatment plan based on your specific symptoms and health goals. Treatment options may include:

  • Lifestyle changes: Weight management through a healthy diet and exercise is essential in managing PCOS symptoms and improving overall well-being.
  • Medications: To regulate menstrual cycles, reduce acne, and manage excessive hair growth. Hormonal treatments such as birth control pills or progestin therapy can help restore regular periods.
  • Fertility treatments: If you’re trying to conceive, we offer options like ovulation induction medications and IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) to assist with fertility.
  • Management of insulin resistance: In cases where insulin resistance is present, medications like Metformin may be prescribed to help improve insulin sensitivity.
