It is linked with risk factors like increased male hormone levels,\u00a0 abnormal menstruation, and sub-infertility.\u00a0 Other illustrations of PCOS are acne, abnormal hair growth, hairfall, and male-pattern baldness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Presently, there is no known cause of PCOS. However, there are connections with excess insulin, low-grade inflammation, and genetics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If someone has Pcos, then in most cases they have other medical issues as well. Let\u2019s have a look at the risk factors for people with PCOS and what we can do and how to manage PCOS.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Risk Factors for people with PCOS<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">PCOS is a major genetic problem. Women whose mother or sister with PCOS are more likely to diagnose PCOS than someone whose relatives do not have the condition. This family relatedness is the main risk factor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Glucose is the body\u2019s primary source of energy. It is regulated in the body by insulin. Someone with insulin resistance is unable to use insulin efficiently. This instigates the pancreas to look for extra insulin to meet the body\u2019s glucose needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Excess insulin affects a woman\u2019s ability to produce eggs. Because of its increased androgen production. Studies have shown that women with PCOS have chronic inflammation. This stimulates the ovaries to produce androgens.<\/span><\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is important to understand the long-term health risks associated with the disease, which include:<\/span><\/h6>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Infertility or subfertility<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Endometrial cancer<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">high cholesterol<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">liver disease<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">abnormal uterine bleeding<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Obesity<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Diabetes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lipid abnormalities<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cardiovascular risks<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Obstructive sleep apnea<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pregnancy complications- miscarriage, gestational diabetes, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not all females with PCOS will develop these conditions.
