Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or Polycystic ovary disease (PCOD)is a common endocrine condition in young women. It affects approximately 10- 15% of women with reproductive age group and often leads to difficulty in getting pregnant. Women with PCOS exhibit a variety of symptoms like irregular periods, excessive hair growth, acne, weight gain and on an ultrasound scan, ovaries are found to contain multiple small cysts. The word cyst is actually a misnomer, as these are basically small antral follicles, which are present in all women in reproductive age group. In PCOS women, these small follicles are excessive in number. These follicles produce excessive hormones which in turn create problems with egg formation leading to delayed cycles and infertility.
