Polycystic ovary syndrome is one of the common gynecological endocrine disorders and patients should visit their gynecologist.
The endocrine features of polycystic ovary syndrome are excess androgens, estrone, and insulin. The ovaries are enlarged bilaterally and there are more follicles. However, there are no mature follicles, as well as no ovulation, and the endometrium will have different degrees of hyperplasia, so menstrual disorders and infertility will occur. Polycystic ovary syndrome can also manifest as hirsuteness, acne, acanthosis nigricans, and obesity.
If the anovulation persists for a long time, it will increase the probability of endometrial cancer. Polycystic ovary syndrome should be taken seriously, and patients are advised to go to the gynecology department for consultation.
Diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome, it is recommended to improve the relevant examination, regular and periodic treatment. For obese patients, diet should be controlled and exercise should be increased in order to achieve the goal of weight reduction.
