Doctor explains 3 SKIN SIGNS ASSOCIATED WITH POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN SYNDROME (PCOS)

Dr O'Donovan explains 3 SKIN SIGNS associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition that affects how a woman's ovaries work. The 3 main features of PCOS are: 1. irregular periods – which means your ovaries do not regularly release eggs (ovulation) 2. excess androgen – high levels of "male" hormones in your body, which may cause physical signs such as excess facial or body hair 3. polycystic ovaries – your ovaries become enlarged and contain many fluid-filled sacs (follicles) that surround the eggs. If you have at least 2 of these features, you may be diagnosed with PCOS.
