Irregular Periods, Acne, and Weight Gain? You Might Be Ignoring Signs of PCOS!
What Is PCOS, and Why Should You Care?
PCOS is a hormonal disorder affecting 5%–10% of women of reproductive age. It leads to irregular ovulation, excess androgens (male hormones), and insulin resistance. If left unmanaged, it can increase the risk of infertility, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease.

What Causes PCOS?
There’s no single cause, but research suggests genetics, insulin resistance, and lifestyle factors play a major role. If you have a family history of PCOS or diabetes, your risk may be higher.
