What are the dangers of PCOS?

Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine syndrome produced by the abnormal mechanism of menstrual regulation, which may be formed by the early maturation of the adrenal cortex, secretion of more androgens, and its metabolites cause abnormal secretion of gonadotropins in the pituitary gland, resulting in organic changes in the ovaries, ovarian enlargement, capsule thickening, most follicles are cystic development, but not reaching maturity, and there is no ovulation, the interstitium and follicular membrane of the follicles are proliferated, and a large amount of male hormones are secreted under the action of gonadotropins (LH). This creates a vicious circle

Clinical manifestations: mainly secondary amenorrhea, often preceded by infrequent or too little menstruation; Infertility is often caused by menstrual irregularities and persistent anovulation; Due to the excess of male hormones in the body, it often leads to hirsutism and obesity, and the hair distribution tends to be virilized; Bilateral ovaries are enlarged, 1 to 3 times that of normal people, and can be detected during ** examination or auxiliary examination

In patients with suspected condition, pelvic pneumogram laparoscopy and endocrine hormone measurement are also needed to confirm the diagnosis

This condition is harmful to the body, and it mainly endangers the fertility of patients during the childbearing age, and patients may have infertility, recurrent miscarriage, cervical insufficiency and pregnancy complications, such as gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, polyhydramnios, macrosomia, etc.; Polycystic ovary syndrome presents with infertility, obesity, hirsutism, infrequent menstruation, and amenorrhea. Polycystic ovary syndrome causes infertility because there is no ovulation.

The first harm of polycystic ovary syndrome is to cause menstrual irregularities, female patients may feel that their menstrual cycle is gradually shortened, and the menstrual flow is small, and there may even be amenorrhea and uterine bleeding, causing us to have more serious concerns.

When we suffer from this disease, hormone secretion may be disordered, resulting in defective ovarian function, which may lead to a decrease in ovulation and female infertility.

The disease may cause hirsutism in women, and this condition may also cause a great mental burden on women, and the ovaries will increase due to androgen enlargement, and we will find hirsutism around the mouth and at the base of the thighs.

It can cause people to develop acne, which mainly occurs on the face, but also on the cheeks, shoulders and back, and is initially more obvious acne and causes great pain to women.

There is also the harm of obesity, many young female patients will have obesity, when polycystic ovary syndrome appears, hormone secretion is abnormal, may make the body easy to become fat, when the body becomes fat, women's psychological and physical pressure will increase.
