PCOS

Introduction :
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a hormonal disorder that affects many women of reproductive age. While it can present various challenges, understanding and managing PCOS is key to improving your quality of life.

Understanding PCOS :
PCOS is a complex condition with a range of symptoms, including irregular periods, cysts on the ovaries, hormonal imbalances, and in some cases, difficulty getting pregnant. The exact cause of PCOS is not fully understood, but genetics, insulin resistance, and hormonal factors are believed to play a role.

Symptoms and Effects :
The symptoms of PCOS can vary widely, making it important to seek proper diagnosis and management. Common symptoms include irregular or absent periods, heavy bleeding, acne, excessive hair growth, weight gain, and mood swings. Left unmanaged, PCOS can lead to complications such as infertility, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease.

Managing PCOS through Lifestyle :
While PCOS can’t be cured, its symptoms can be effectively managed. At Gajanana Hospital, we emphasize lifestyle changes as a foundation for treatment. Healthy eating, regular exercise, and stress management are crucial components.

Balanced Nutrition :
Our expert nutritionists guide you in adopting a balanced diet that helps regulate insulin levels and hormones. Focusing on whole foods, low glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates, lean proteins, and healthy fats can aid in managing insulin resistance and weight.

Regular Exercise :
Exercise is a powerful tool in managing PCOS. It helps improve insulin sensitivity, manage weight, and alleviate stress. Our fitness specialists assist you in finding enjoyable and sustainable physical activities that suit your lifestyle.

Stress Management :
Chronic stress can worsen PCOS symptoms. Incorporating relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, and deep breathing can help manage stress and support hormonal balance.

Medical Interventions :
In some cases, medical intervention might be necessary to manage specific PCOS symptoms. Birth control pills can regulate menstrual cycles, while anti-androgen medications address excess hair growth and acne. If fertility is a concern, our team works closely with you to explore options such as ovulation-inducing medications and assisted reproductive technologies.
