Patient's question:
I have polycystic ovary syndrome. The doctor said that if this disease is not treated, it will not lead to infertility. But I don't believe it, so I want to ask you if this disease really leads to infertility if it is not treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a group of endocrine disorders characterized by features such as oligomenorrhea or anovulation, hyperandrogenism or insulin resistance, and polycystic ovaries. The symptoms include menstrual irregularity or amenorrhea, chronic anovulation, and infertility. This means you cannot get pregnant because the ovaries do not release oocytes, and the absence of oocyte release means sperm cannot fuse with the oocyte to form a zygote, leading to female infertility. It is recommended that you seek timely treatment at a formal infertility specialist hospital, follow the doctor's advice, actively cooperate with the treatment, and avoid missing the best opportunity for treatment. Wishing you good luck with your pregnancy.
