✅What is PCOD?
Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) is a condition that affects a woman's hormonal levels, leading to the development of cysts in the ovaries and causing various health issues.
✅Full Form of PCOD
PCOD stands for Polycystic Ovarian Disease, highlighting its primary feature: multiple cysts in the ovaries.
✅There are four main types of PCOD:
👉Insulin-Resistant PCOD: This is the most common type and is often associated with obesity and insulin resistance.
👉Inflammatory PCOD: This type is linked to chronic inflammation and can cause headaches and joint pain.
👉Hidden PCOD: Often goes unnoticed until symptoms become severe; can be influenced by stress and lifestyle factors.
👉Post-Pill PCOD: This can occur after discontinuing birth control pills, and typically resolves on its own over time.
✅Common Symptoms of PCOD
📌Irregular or absent menstrual periods
📌Excessive hair growth (hirsutism)
📌Acne and oily skin
📌Weight gain, especially around the abdomen
📌Thinning hair or hair loss
📌Difficulty getting pregnant
✅Managing PCOD involves lifestyle changes such as:
👉Diet: A balanced Rainbow diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains can help manage symptoms.
👉Exercise: Regular physical activity minimum of 45 minutes can improve insulin sensitivity and aid weight management.
👉Stress Management: Yoga, meditation, and adequate sleep can help reduce stress levels.
✅Treatment options:
👉Medications: Birth control pills, anti-androgens, and insulin-sensitizing drugs.
👉Fertility Treatments: For women facing infertility, treatments such as ovulation induction, IVF, and other assisted reproductive technologies can be considered.
