Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal imbalance that occurs in women. 1 in 10 women globally suffer from this condition. In India nearly 11 to 20 percent of women experience its symptoms. It can cause various issues in the body like excessive production of male hormones, cysts on the ovaries, infertility, weight gain, acne and even heart and diabetes related problems.
PCOS is irreversible but it can be managed through lifestyle and nutritional changes. Diet plays a big role in balancing hormones as well. Foods rich in fiber, low in glycemic index, anti-inflammatory and hormone-supportive are best options for those who face PCOS.
