Scientific Methods to PCOS Treatment
Current PCOS treatment methods:
1. Lifestyle Changes: Studies have found that losing 5-10% of body weight remarkably improves ovulation in females with PCOS. Exercise regularly and eat a low-refined carbohydrate diet to improve insulin levels, which tend to be involved in PCOS.
2. Medication: Ovulation can be triggered by fertility medications, and some medicines are available to improve insulin resistance, androgen imbalance, and overall hormonal imbalance.
Endometriosis: The Silent Fertility Thief
Endometriosis is said to be present in about 12% of women of reproductive age in India. This condition occurs when endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, causing inflammation, scarring, and alterations in the normal reproductive system functioning.
Managing Endometriosis for Improved Fertility
Endometriosis surgery: Laparoscopic excision of endometriosis implants has significantly improved pregnancy rates. Results of studies have found that it increases pregnancy rates by 30 – 80% after the operation, depending on how severe the level of endometriosis is, its stages, the patient’s age, and related particulars.
Hormonal Treatment: They suppress menstruation and are effective in relieving symptoms.
Endometriosis Diet: Anti-inflammatory foods, such as omega-3 fatty acids, bioactive compounds such as antioxidants, and rich fibre foods significantly help ameliorate symptoms. The general precept of the endometriosis diet is avoiding red meat, trans fats, and alcohol since all of these worsen the inflammatory condition.
When Both PCOS and Endometriosis Coexist
Some women suffer from both conditions at the same time. The diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) can also add to the complexity of treatment with endometriosis, but it does not make conception entirely impossible.
