Fight Like a Girl- PCOS Awareness Month
September is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) Awareness Month
PCOS is a serious genetic, hormone, metabolic and reproductive disorder that affects women and girls. It is the leading cause of female infertility and a precursor for other serious conditions including obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and endometrial cancer.
PCOS Awareness Month is created to increase awareness of, and education about, PCOS among the general public, women, girls and healthcare professionals. The aim of PCOS Awareness Month is to help improve the lives of those affected by PCOS and to help them to overcome their symptoms as well as prevent and reduce their risks for life-threatening related diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and cancer.

Diagnosis and treatment of PCOS remain controversial with challenges defining individual components within the diagnostic criteria, significant clinical heterogeneity generating a range of phenotypes with or without obesity, ethnic differences and variation in clinical features across the life course. These factors contribute to variation in diagnosis and care across geographical regions and health professional groups.This culminates in delayed diagnosis, poor diagnosis experience and dissatisfaction with care reported by women internationally.
Is PCOS Treatable?
While there is cure for PCOS, early diagnosis and proper education can help women lower the risk factors and manage the symptoms associated with PCOS. Diet and exercise play a crucial role in the management of PCOS, not only for weight loss and maintenance, but also to regulate insulin levels.
