With PCOS Today
Do you struggle with irregular menstrual cycles, sudden weight gain, or even fertility problems? You might have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).
PCOS is one of the most common hormonal imbalances in women. It affects the ovaries, your body’s hormone production, and your overall women’s health.
More than 5 million women in the U.S. live with PCOS — about 1 in 10 women of reproductive age (OSHA). Many don’t even know they
have it.
At Manhattan Medical Arts, our primary care physician, Dr. Syra Hanif, offers personal care and treatment that helps restore hormone balance and improve
your quality of life.
What is Polycystic Ovary
Syndrome?
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, is a hormonal imbalance that affects how the ovaries function. Some women develop
small cysts, while others don’t.
It can disrupt your menstrual cycle and cause symptoms that affect both your health and confidence. PCOS is linked to insulin
sensitivity problems, which may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes.
PCOS is treatable. With the right care, you can manage symptoms and lower your risk of long-term complications.
Common symptoms include:
Missed or heavy periods
Acne or oily skin
Weight gain that’s hard to manage
Hair thinning or unwanted hair growth
Trouble getting pregnant
Up to 70% of women with PCOS are undiagnosed (NIH).
