Can polycystic ovaries be cured?

  The current view is that polycystic ovary syndrome is a lifelong condition that requires regular monitoring of patients. Many authors have conducted follow-up studies on the natural course of PCOS.  Reports indicate that women with PCOS approaching menopause often resume regular menstruation with a subsequent decrease in body androgen levels. This is attributed to aging ovaries, lower inhibin levels, progressively higher follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels and improved menstrual cycles. When it comes to self-healing, polycystic, since it is called a “syndrome”, is a combination of clinical symptoms that occur together. However, in a particular patient, these symptoms do not all appear. Or some people may have some symptoms that are mild and others that are more severe. For example, in some women with polycystic menstruation is slightly irregular, there is no anovulation or rare ovulation, and they happen to be pregnant, then the disease has no effect on pregnancy. If she herself is very careful to adjust her lifestyle, she is relatively thin and her long-term health is less affected. This is not a case of self-healing, but the disease does have little impact. In addition, a woman’s ovarian function gradually declines with age, as it does in polycystic patients.  In the average woman, ovarian function gradually approaches menopause by age 40, with an average age of menopause of 48 years. In polycystic patients, ovarian function may be similar to that of a normal woman at age 30 by age 40. Ten years before menopause, the ovaries of a woman with polycystic are about the same as those of a normal woman, and the symptoms of the disease are reduced. Put another way. By pre-menopause, women with polycystic ovaries have small follicles, academically called sinus follicles. After the age of 40, ordinary menopausal women may have to take hormone supplements for their health care.  However, when polycystic patients reach near menopause, they can do without hormone supplementation and have a lower incidence of osteoporosis than others. From this perspective, polycystic is still a little good for women’s health.
