Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age, characterized by irregular menstrual periods, excess androgen levels, and ovarian cysts. The exact cause is unknown but likely involves genetic and environmental factors. Symptoms include menstrual irregularity, excess hair growth, acne, and obesity. Treatments range from birth control pills and metformin to statins and hormonal therapies, with no direct cure available. Lifestyle factors like diet and obesity exacerbate the condition. Ayurvedic formulations, such as the Hyponidd tablet containing herbs like Vijaysaar and Haridra, are being explored for their potential to balance hormones and manage PCOS symptoms.
