Causes of Polycystic Ovarian Disease

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common complex disease in women, and with many female patients ignoring it, the incidence of polycystic ovary syndrome is getting higher and higher. Polycystic ovary syndrome is a disease of endocrine and metabolic abnormalities, and its causes are very complicated. Polycystic ovary can cause great harm to women's health, so it is necessary to find out the cause and treat it with medication in time.

Causes of Polycystic Ovarian Disease

1. Hypothalamic-pituitary function problems

Hypothalamic-pituitary-hypothalamic function problems are the key reason why women cannot get pregnant, reflected in the aromatase converting the excessive male hormones in the female patient's jugular vein into unnecessary male hormones, or abnormal metabolism of steroid hormones produced by the female ovaries. Finally, it causes female patients to ovulate slowly or not.

2. Hyperprolactinuria

Because many patients with polycystic ovary have PRL kinase in the adrenal cytoplasm, it stimulates female adrenal cells through the secretion of androgen. This is the reflection of hyperprolactinuria in patients with cystic uterus and ovary.

3. Abnormal adrenal function

The vast majority of female patients will have metabolic abnormalities and abnormalities in the relationship between the hypothalamic pituitary-uterine ovarian axis. These are all caused by the continuous increase in the metabolism of male hormones due to adrenaline in patients with PCOS.

4. Genetic factors

Some female patients with polycystic ovary have symptoms due to abnormalities in the number and structure of sex chromosomes X and the absence of the long arm of chromosome X. Although the normal karyotype is possessed by the vast majority of patients. This is probably caused by inheriting a dominant gene.

Early symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome

1. Menstrual disorders: The most common symptom of cystic ovary syndrome is irregular menstruation. Patients usually experience infrequent menstruation and amenorrhea. Many patients also experience symptoms of non-menstrual bleeding in the uterus, and the menstrual cycle and menstrual volume are very irregular.

2. Infertility: Polycystic ovary syndrome can hinder women’s ovulation period, leading to infertility.

3. Excessive hair and acne: Women with polycystic ovary syndrome usually have excessive hair. This is caused by hyperandrogenism, which causes the growth of hair on women's bodies to show a masculine trend. It can also cause oily skin and acne in women because the male hormones in the patient's body excessively stimulate the sebaceous glands.

4. Obesity: More than half of the patients with polycystic ovary syndrome suffer from obesity, which is the most clinical symptom of this disease.
