Everyone will be troubled by illness to some extent throughout their life, but the degree of illness and the dangerousness of the disease vary. Colds and fevers are common household diseases. A large number of people fall ill every time the season changes, but they recover quickly. But some diseases can cause people to lose many functions and have a great impact on their lives. Polycystic ovary syndrome is one of them. Today I will tell you how to diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome. The examination of polycystic ovary syndrome includes the following aspects. 1. Body temperature check: If a woman's body temperature is generally single-phase, it can be basically determined that her ovaries may not ovulate. 2. Ultrasound examination: Ultrasound examination shows that both ovaries are polycystic and enlarged, with thickened and echogenic capsules. A large number of them can be seen under the capsule, with a diameter of 2~7mm. 3. Hormone measurement: If you suffer from this disease, the six sex hormones, namely follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, and prolactin, will deviate from normal values. The most notable feature of PCOS is anovulation. Since there is no ovulation, the ovaries only secrete estrogen and androgen, but not progesterone. Estrogen stimulates the proliferation of the endometrium. Progesterone causes a secretory response in the endometrium. If the endometrium is affected by estrogen for a long time without the effect of progesterone, endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer will occur, endangering women's health. Hyperandrogenism is another important characteristic of PCOS. The ovaries of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome secrete large amounts of androgen, which causes them to show symptoms of androgen excess, including growing beards, excessive pubic hair, and excessive acne. These conditions may adversely affect a woman's appearance. Diseases like polycystic ovary syndrome not only affect women's normal physiological activities, but the symptoms of hirsutism also affect women's appearance, causing many women to have inferiority complex. But the disease is uncontrollable, and women don’t need to feel inferior. We should pay attention to prevention in normal times, rather than trying to treat the disease after it is discovered. Developing healthy living habits can effectively prevent many diseases. |
