Patient's question:
Started having irregular periods since the age of 16, and now that I'm married, I want to have a baby.Doctor's answer:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is caused by dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, disrupting the interdependent relationships and regulation between these components. As a result, the ovaries cannot ovulate for a long time, leading to infertility. It is a lifelong condition, but with effective treatment, it does not affect fertility or quality of life. There are two main treatment methods for PCOS: medication and surgery.
