PCOS and PCOD Treatment in Kharghar
A chronic hormonal disorder affecting women through their reproductive years. It shows up as irregular periods, raised male hormones, and multiple small cysts on one or both ovaries.
Understanding it
What PCOS is, and what drives it
Polycystic Ovarian Disease, also referred to as polycystic ovary syndrome, is a chronic and disruptive hormonal disorder found in women of reproductive age, roughly 18 to 45. Women with PCOS or PCOD may have increased male hormones, irregular periods, and multiple small fluid filled sacs, or cysts, in one or both ovaries.
The exact cause is unclear. It can be attributed to a disturbed hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, to insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia, and to genetic and environmental factors including lifestyle and dietary habits.
That insulin link is why PCOS is not simply a period problem. Weight, insulin resistance and cycle regulation all move together, which is why we manage them together rather than treating the cycle in isolation and hoping the rest follows.
It also has a long tail. PCOS raises long term metabolic and cardiovascular risk, so a proper management plan looks past the immediate symptoms to the decades that follow. In this clinic that means your cardiac risk is part of the same conversation rather than a separate appointment.

Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia sit behind much of PCOS, which is why they are treated directly.

Frequently asked questions
The questions patients ask most often, answered plainly.
What is the difference between PCOS and PCOD?
The terms are used interchangeably for the same hormonal disorder. PCOS, polycystic ovary syndrome, is the more current term.
What causes PCOS?
The exact cause is unclear. It is attributed to a disturbed hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia, and genetic and environmental factors including lifestyle and diet.
Can women with PCOS conceive?
Yes. With the right treatment and lifestyle care, many women with PCOS become pregnant.
Does diet make a difference?
A significant one. Because insulin resistance drives much of PCOS, diet and weight influence the cycle directly rather than indirectly.
Is PCOS curable?
It is a chronic condition rather than a curable one, but it is very manageable. Symptoms and long term risk both respond well to a proper plan.
What tests are needed?
A hormone profile, insulin and thyroid function tests, and an ultrasound of the ovaries.
