4 Common Causes of PCOS
-
Researchers find it difficult to pinpoint the exact causes of PCOS. Empirical evidence shows the following four causes of PCOS problem.
a. Family history (Genetics): Studies shows that PCOS runs in families. If a family has history of PCOS problems, the members are at higher risk of getting affected by PCOS.
b. Insulin resistance: Insulin resistance creates excess insulin. The ovaries hence, produce more testosterone. Ultimately it disturbs the period cycle.
c. Abnormal weight: Both under-weight and over-weight contributes to PCOS problems. Studies show that the more you gain weight, the higher insulin resistance. This stops ovulation and decreases the chances to get pregnant.
d. Hormone imbalance: Hormone imbalance creates a situation where in excess of male hormones are produced. This leads to situation called hyperandrogenism. A woman starts developing unwanted hair on the chin and other body parts (called hirsutism). Also observed hair thinning, and weight gain at lower waist area. Also, irregular periods are common.
