PCOS & Infertility

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age. It is characterised by irregular menstrual periods, excess androgen levels, and polycystic ovaries. PCOS can lead to infertility by disrupting the normal ovulation process, making it difficult for women to conceive.

While there is no cure for PCOS, its symptoms and associated infertility can be effectively managed with appropriate treatments. Lifestyle changes, medications, and fertility treatments can help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce symptoms, and improve the chances of conception. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual's specific needs and health conditions.

Yes, there are natural ways to help manage PCOS and improve fertility. Maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management can significantly impact hormone levels and menstrual regularity. Some women may benefit from supplements such as inositol or omega-3 fatty acids. It is important to note that you should always consult with your doctor to ensure that natural treatments are safe and suitable for your condition.

PCOS and infertility treatment involves a combination of lifestyle changes, medications, and assisted reproductive technologies. Medications can help regulate menstrual cycles and stimulate ovulation. In some cases, fertility treatments such as in vitro fertilisation (IVF) may be recommended. The goal is to manage PCOS symptoms and improve the chances of achieving pregnancy.

PCOS and infertility treatments come in various forms, including oral medications, injectable hormones, and lifestyle interventions. Oral medications can help regulate hormones and stimulate ovulation, while injectable hormones are used in more advanced fertility treatments. Lifestyle interventions focus on diet, exercise, and weight management to support overall health and reproductive function.

Yes, many PCOS and infertility medications require a prescription. You should always consult with your doctor or healthcare provider for advice on whether a medication is suitable for you.
