PCOS Awareness: Facebook Live Events
Posted by Dr. Alda Ngo
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) effects 1 in 10 people. It is a genetic, hormone, metabolic and reproductive disorder that can lead to life-long complications.
It can lead to severe anxiety, depression, obesity, endometrial cancer, type 2 diabetes, liver disease and cardiovascular disease.
10-15% of womxn are estimated to have PCOS. It affects millions of people worldwide and carries serious potential long term health consequences. Yet 50% of people living with it are undiagnosed.
It is the leading cause of infertility.
According to the National Institute of Health 50% of people with PCOS will develop type 2 diabetes before age 40.
Some studies show that people with PCOS have 3 times higher risk of developing endometrial cancer and may also be at increased risk of ovarian and breast cancer.
But there’s plenty one can do to address PCOS naturally and through lifestyle changes.
