Doctor's answer:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) generally manifests with irregular menstruation, anovulation, hirsutism, obesity, amenorrhea, and even infertility. It can usually be diagnosed through ultrasound, laparoscopic examination, or endometrial biopsy. The occurrence of such issues is currently considered to be closely related to hormonal abnormalities. Treatment typically involves hormone regulation, using medications such as Marvelon, Clomiphene, or traditional Chinese medicine. Surgery may be considered as a final option. For complications, appropriate measures should be taken. It is important to pay attention to diet, actively cooperate with treatment, and maintain a positive mindset while ensuring a regular lifestyle.
