What is polycystic ovary syndrome?

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common health problem caused by an imbalance of reproductive hormones. As a result of hormonal imbalances there are ovarian issues. PCOS affected women during their childbearing years, this can range from as young as 15 to 44 years of age. 

PCOS targets the ovaries, these are organs that produce oestrogen and progesterone hormones which help regulate a woman’s menstrual cycle. Every month as part of a normal menstrual cycle, an egg is produced by the ovaries and released. The egg may not mature normally or may not be released at all during ovulation as it should be if PCOS is present. Period irregularities can result in Fertility issues and the growth of cysts which are tiny sacs filled with fluid in the ovaries.


Symptoms of PCOS include:

  • Irregular periods or no periods at all.
  • Difficulty getting pregnant (because of irregular ovulation or failure to ovulate)
  • Excessive hair growth (hirsutism) – usually on the face, chest, back or buttocks.
  • Weight gain.
  • Thinning hair and hair loss from the head.
  • oily skin or acne.
