The full form of PCOD is Polycystic Ovarian Disease. This is also known as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and is a very common condition affecting 5% to 10% of women in the age group 12–45 years. It is a problem in which a woman’s hormones are out of balance. 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 PCOD treatment is not followed it can cause insulin-resistant diabetes, obesity and high cholesterol leading to heart disease.
PCOD Treatment
The cure is yet to be determined for PCOD. Hence the PCOD treatment focusses on managing your individual concerns, such as infertility, hirsutism, acne or obesity.
• Lowering of blood glucose levels
• Restoration of fertility
• Treatment of hirsutism or acne
• Restoration of regular menstruation, and prevention of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer
You must remember that PCOD treatment will only help with proper lifestyle changes.
Also, getting pregnant is not an issue if PCOD is under control. However, you may need medications or assisted reproductive technology (ART) with a fertility expert.
