PCOD treatment

PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) is a medical condition in which the woman ovaries produce immature eggs in large numbers and over the time these become cysts in ovaries.

Treatments include hormonal pills to regularise periods, medication called metformin to prevent diabetes, statins to control high cholesterol, hormones to increase fertility and procedures to remove excess hair.

To help decrease the effects of PCOS , try to:

Maintain a healthy weight. Weight loss can reduce insulin and androgen levels and may restore ovulation.

Limit carbohydrates. Low-fat, high-carbohydrate diets might increase insulin levels.

Be active. Exercise helps lower blood sugar levels.
