Im 21 year, unmarried, my weight is 48 kg. I went to doc as I have seen facial hair growth, hair growth on my chest and back. Hair fall from roots of my scalp. Irregular pain in abdomen. I get my periods by 22-24 days the bleeding is normal but the first 2 days I get a lot cramps and backache .The doc said me that I'm having PCOS. The size of the ovary is 3.5 & 5. She said me not to gain weight and she did not prescribed any type of medicine until marriage. Could you please help me out. How PCOS is caused? What are the precautions to be taken? Is it permanently treated? How it effects other parts? If not treated permanently then what are the other measures. What measures has to be taken further? When it has to be treated? The cysts will increase, stay as it is or it will decrease? Please help me with my question.

Hello Yasmeen, thank for your query. PCOS is caused by hormonal imbalance in the female reproductive system usually because of stress, improper eating habits, lack of exercise,etc. It can be treated by adapting healthy life style and lower stress. The effects of PCOS include acne, unwanted hair growth, and weight gain at times.You can take a second opinion regarding the treatment to be started for the cyst now.It may increase. and the facial hair can be treated with laser treatments.
