Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. Recently, my body has been experiencing a lot of health issues again. Not only am I experiencing irregular periods, but I also have various other problems—there are really so many. Could you please tell me if irregular periods, endocrine disorders, and polycystic ovary syndrome are related to each other recently?Doctor's answer:
The ovaries of women primarily regulate hormone levels in the body. The current recurrence of menstrual disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and endocrine disorders are closely related. When there are follicles in the ovaries that are not mature and cannot be released, it is referred to as polycystic ovary syndrome. This is caused by endocrine disorders leading to imbalanced hormone levels, which in turn can result in menstrual irregularities. First treating polycystic ovary syndrome can then resolve other issues.
