Poly cystic Ovary Syndrome or PCOS is a condition that maybe hereditary. 

Many of the patients tend to have increased Blood sugar levels with Anovulation and infertility being one of the most common effects on young women. The fertility experts at Kiran Infertility centre ,Bengaluru are likely to conduct some tests in order to confirm the condition.

1) Obesity.
2)Menstrual irregularity
3) Excessive hair on the face and back
4) Acne
5) Dark patches on the skin
6) Type 2 diabetes
7) Heart Ailments
8) Sleep disorders
9) Mood swings

PCOD(polycystic ovarian disease)

Is one of the commonest causes of infertility. Patients have multiple small cysts in their ovaries that occur when the regular changes of a normal menstrual cycle are disrupted. The ovary is enlarged, and it produces excessive amounts of androgen and estrogenic hormones.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), also called hyper-androgenic anovulation (HA), or Stein–Leventhal syndrome, is a set of symptoms due to a hormone imbalance in women. Signs and symptoms of PCOS include irregular or no menstrual periods, heavy periods, excess body and facial hair, acne, pelvic pain, trouble getting pregnant, and patches of thick, darker, velvety skin. Associated conditions also include type 2 Diabetes, Obesity, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, Heart Diseases, Mood Disorders, and Endometrial Cancer.

PCOS is due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Risk factors for PCOS include obesity, not enough physical exercise, and a family history of someone of this condition. Diagnosis is based on two of the following three findings: no ovulation, high androgen levels, and ovarian cysts. Cysts are detectable by ultrasound. Other conditions that produce similar symptoms include adrenal hyperplasia, hypothyroidism, and hyperprolactinemia.

 PCOS has no permanent cure. Treatment for PCOS involves lifestyle changes such as weight loss and exercise. Birth control pills are used to help in regularizing periods, excess hair, and acne. Metformin and anti-androgens are also useful. Efforts to improve fertility include weight loss for obese patients, and administration of clomiphene, or metformin. In vitro fertilization is used in few cases wherein the treatment is not effective.

PCOS is the most common endocrinal disorder among women between the ages of 18 and 44. It affects approximately 5% to 10% of this age group. It is one of the leading causes of poor fertility.
