Polycystic ovary syndrome

PCOS is a problem related to hormones. Oestrogen and progesterone are the main female hormones and some amount of androgen which is a male hormone is also present in females. Imbalance in these hormones leads to PCOS. It is not completely understood why or how the changes in the hormone levels occur. These changes lead to problems in the ovulation process of the ovaries resulting in the development of many immature eggs. In normal ovulation, one or more eggs get matured and are released during one menstrual cycle.
