Planner: Chinese Medical Association Reviewer: Luo Xiping, Chief Physician, Guangdong Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital Polycystic ovary syndrome is not a very "dangerous disease". It is neither a tumor nor ovarian cancer. It is a common endocrine disorder syndrome. However, polycystic ovary syndrome will bring some health risks to patients. It is a common cause of clinical manifestations such as menstrual disorders, infertility, obesity, hirsutism, acne, and metabolic problems in women of childbearing age. Menstrual irregularities: Women with PCOS may experience irregular menstrual cycles or complete amenorrhea. Infertility: Ovarian dysfunction may result in anovulation or irregular ovulation. Obesity: The proportion of obesity in patients with PCOS is relatively high, and obesity will aggravate the symptoms of PCOS. Skin problems: such as hirsutism, acne, etc. Metabolic problems: Women with PCOS have a higher risk of developing insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Although PCOS may pose some health risks, it can be effectively managed and controlled through medication, regular monitoring and lifestyle adjustments. If you suspect you may have PCOS, you should consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. |
