Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a widespread condition. Worldwide, 6% – 10% of women are affected by PCOS.  It’s one of the most common causes of infertility and often underdiagnosed. Many women don’t get diagnosed until they seek help with conceiving. Symptoms can include acne, weight gain, excessive facial hair, irregular or absent periods, lack of ovulation, and infertility.

Women with PCOS sometimes feel embarrassed about the cosmetic effects of the disorder. But there are many effective treatments available. You can learn more here.

The most important thing to remember is that you aren’t alone.
