What syndrome is that?
So what is polycystic ovarian syndrome?
According to the website Cedars-Sinai, polycystic ovary syndrome is due to the cystic (fluid filled sacs) appearance of the ovaries.
Well, I would like to know the cause of it too... but it's unknown =(
Furthermore, it is the leading cause of infertility in women. =(
However, early diagnosis and treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome can help to reduce risk of long term complications such as diabetes and heart disease.
So I guess mine is early diagnosis? Some other complications include abnormal uterine bleeding or cancer of the uterine lining ='(
Hopefully the treatment the doctor gave me can reduce the risk of some long term complications. The medication decreases androgen production so that it gives the body a break from the effects of the continuous estrogen. This can decrease the risk of endometrial cancer and correct the abnormal bleeding.
It's scary huh? Maybe guys won't understand it, but this is a pretty sensitive issue for the ladies. The infertility part suddenly crush my hopes and dreams of a complete family with 2 kids, a boy and a girl. I was quite upset the last couple of days. Although I know some medications or surgical methods might help, still the chances of becoming pregnant can be quite low.
Sometimes I wonder, why this must happen to me.
