What Are The Symptoms of Pcod?

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can vary in its presentation, and not all individuals will experience the same symptoms. Common symptoms of PCOS include:

  • Irregular periods or no periods at all.
  • Excessive hair growth (hirsutism), often on the face, chest, or back.
  • Acne or oily skin.
  • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight.
  • Thinning hair or male-pattern baldness.
  • Darkening of the skin in certain areas, such as the neck, groin, or underarms (acanthosis nigricans).
  • Skin tags.
  • Pelvic pain.
  • Difficulty getting pregnant (infertility).
  • Mood swings or depression.

It’s important to note that not everyone with PCOS will experience all of these symptoms, and some individuals may have additional symptoms or health complications. If you suspect you have PCOS or are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and management plan.
