Patient's question:
I have had irregular periods for a long time, but the ultrasound results in August and December were different. This year, I was carefully examined and found to have polycystic ovary syndrome. Why did I get this disease so quickly?Doctor's answer:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder caused by multiple different factors and requires long-term treatment. Patients with PCOS may experience menstrual cycle disorders, oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea, or infertility. In addition to potentially experiencing obesity, hirsutism, acne, and other symptoms, it is recommended to undergo a six-hormone test, insulin testing, and check prolactin, androgens, and insulin levels before considering treatment. The recurrence of gynecological diseases severely affects women's health, and patients need to pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene and avoiding sexual activity throughout their lives. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive professional treatment.
