PCOS & Infertility
PCOS, which stands for polycystic ovary syndrome, is a condition that affects hormone levels in women. It causes them to produce more male hormones than they normally would. Women with PCOS often don’t have periods and can also find it hard to get pregnant. Unfortunately, PCOS is not currently curable, however, EU Meds provide a number of treatment options.

What is PCOS and 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.
Can you cure PCOS and infertility?
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.
Are there any natural ways to treat PCOS and infertility?
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.
