How to treat polycystic ovary better

For women of childbearing age, polycystic ovary is a common disease, closely related to endocrine, mostly due to excessive male hormones in the body, often manifested as obesity, irregular menstruation, hirsutism, etc. Although this disease is very common, it is one of the main causes of infertility. Therefore, female friends should pay attention to it and actively prevent and treat it.

What is Polycystic Ovarian

Polycystic ovary is the abbreviation of polycystic ovary syndrome. Under normal circumstances, women only produce a small number of follicles during the menstrual cycle. Patients with polycystic ovary have many follicles of different developmental stages in their ovaries, so this disease is called polycystic ovary. Polycystic ovary is a type of endocrine infertility. It is also related to abnormal glucose metabolism. Polycystic ovary is a common disease in women of childbearing age and needs to be prevented in time.

Causes of polycystic ovary

At present, there is no authoritative conclusion in the medical community on the cause of polycystic ovary, but there are still several viewpoints that are highly valued.

1. Genetic factors

Some experts believe that some patients with polycystic ovary may continue to have the disease in a sex-dominant manner. Female sex chromosome 46 is xx. In patients with polycystic disease, one of the x chromosomes may be partially correct or have an abnormal number of structures.

2. Causes of hormone secretion

Endogenous hormone level disorder is one of the main causes of polycystic ovary. High insulin, high androgen, high prolactin and high leptin can cause metabolic abnormalities, leading to the occurrence of polycystic ovary symptoms, which is relatively complicated.

3. Organ dysfunction

The cooperation of all organs in the endocrine work line maintains the internal environment. Any slight error in any link will lead to systemic hormone disorder, so organ dysfunction is more serious than simple hormone secretion abnormality. For example, the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, adrenal cortex, etc., the lesions cannot be cured overnight.

Some scholars believe that there may be some substances in the ovaries of patients with polycystic disease, which may reduce the absorption of follicle-stimulating hormone by ovarian cells, thereby inhibiting follicle development. Dominant follicles cannot be successfully selected. Most of the ovarian follicles in the development stage are immature.

5. Obesity

The main function of body fat is the secretion of leptin. The higher the body fat percentage, the more leptin is secreted. Polycystic ovary is prone to endocrine disorders.

For women who are eager to have children but have not responded to other treatments, assisted reproduction can help them solve the problem. For example, do an IVF, or mature the eggs in vitro and then try to get pregnant. Although this method can solve the urgent problem first, it does not mean that polycystic ovary can be left alone. After giving birth, female friends should return to treatment as soon as possible.
