What are the symptoms of mild PCOS?

Nature is a magical place that breeds all kinds of magical creatures, and human beings are one of them. When an organ or tissue in the body becomes diseased, not only will various cells inside the body fight each other, but various symptoms will also appear to remind us. Many women suffer from polycystic ovary disease. What are their symptoms? Today, I will tell you some common knowledge about polycystic ovary syndrome.

Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine metabolic disorder syndrome characterized by high androgen and persistent anovulation. It is one of the complex and difficult diseases in the field of gynecological endocrinology. According to relevant surveys, polycystic ovary syndrome occurs in 1/3 of patients with amenorrhea, 90% of patients with oligomenorrhea, 20-30% of infertile patients have ovulatory dysfunction, of which PCOS accounts for 70-90%, and about 50% of patients conceived with assisted reproductive technology.

Polycystic ovary syndrome mostly originates in adolescent females, and symptoms include irregular menstruation, increased hair on the lips, under the jaw, around the nipples, midline of the abdomen, and pubic hair, acne on the chest and back, and obesity. However, these symptoms are often ignored by patients, who think they are normal manifestations of puberty, but they are not. The woman has her period every few months or even once a year, but cannot get pregnant without taking any contraceptive measures. Ultrasound examination may reveal that the ovaries have enlarged in size, the capsule has thickened or even become fibrotic, and the number of small follicles in the cortex exceeds 10.

Polycystic ovary syndrome seriously affects women's quality of life and physical and mental health, and may also lead to long-term complications such as type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, central obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and coronary heart disease. Therefore, patients with PCOS need active treatment, relaxation, weight control, and most importantly, adjustment of endocrine indicators to improve ovarian function.

Maintaining the normal functioning of the endocrine system is crucial for women. When the endocrine system is out of balance, many diseases will follow. Moreover, a good endocrine system can slow down the aging process in women. Eating habits have an important impact on the endocrine system. Developing a reasonable and healthy eating habit can effectively maintain endocrine stability.
