What Is PCOS?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common hormonal disorders affecting women of reproductive age, estimated to affect 1 in 5 women in India. It is characterised by irregular periods, elevated androgen levels, and multiple small follicles in the ovaries. PCOS is also a leading cause of infertility.

The Connection Between PCOS and Period Pain

While PCOS often causes infrequent or absent periods (oligomenorrhoea or amenorrhoea), some women with PCOS do experience painful and heavy periods, particularly those with co-existing endometriosis or adenomyosis. Managing PCOS effectively is key to regulating the menstrual cycle and reducing associated discomfort.

Common Symptoms of PCOS

• Irregular or missed periods
• Excessive hair growth on the face, chest, or abdomen (hirsutism)
• Acne and oily skin
• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
• Thinning hair or hair loss on the scalp
• Dark patches of skin (acanthosis nigricans)
• Difficulty conceiving
• Mood changes, anxiety, or depression

How Is PCOS Diagnosed?

• Detailed menstrual and symptom history
• Blood tests: FSH, LH (on day 2 of period), oral glucose challenge test to identify insulin resistance, thyroid profile
• Pelvic ultrasound to assess ovaries
• Diagnosis based on Rotterdam criteria: any 2 of 3 – irregular menstrual cycles, elevated androgen levels, polycystic ovaries
