Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is the most common endrocrine disorder in reproductive age women. It is characterized by patients who have irregular periods, elevated male hormones in their blood, or an abnormal hair growth pattern, and polycystic ovaries on ultrasound. We diagnose it by taking a good history and taking a physical exam, and also, an ultrasound of the patient. Then we send off bloodwork to see if they do have elevated male hormones in their blood. If patients have two of the three of those characteristics, that makes the diagnosis. Of course, we need to exclude other things that may cause those abnormalities as well. We treat Polycystic Ovary Syndrome depending on the complaint the patient is presenting with. If the patient presents with infertility because they have difficulty ovulating, we can give them medications to help them ovulate. If they are presenting with abnormal hair growth, we can also give them medications to try and decrease the hair growth the patients may have.
