What is PCOD/PCOS?
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), also known as polycystic ovarian disorder (PCOD), is hormonal disorder causing enlarged ovaries with small cysts on the outer edges. This is a very common condition affecting 5% to 10% of women in the age group 12–45 years. It is caused due to hormonal imbalance. It can cause problems with menstrual periods and make it difficult for her to conceive. The principal features include no ovulation, irregular periods, acne and hirsutism. If not treated it can cause insulin resistant diabetes, obesity and high cholesterol leading to heart disease. It can also lead to chronic mental illnesses, such as depression and anxiety.
How can I help those who suffer?
There is no cure for PCOS. People often have to maintain very careful and balanced diets, be careful not to exercise too much or too little, and rely on many medicines. Sounds stressful? It is, and symptoms are often aggravated under extreme stress. People suffering from PCOS go through much pain, and here at Tea Trove, we recognize that.
