Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that affects a woman’s hormone levels.

Women with PCOS produce higher-than-normal amounts of male hormones. Their bodies skip menstrual periods as a result of this imbalance, making it more difficult for them to get pregnant.

The most Common PCOS Symptoms are:

• Irregular periods.
• Heavy bleeding.
• Acne.
• Weight gain
• Male pattern baldness
• Darkening of the skin
• Headaches

Weight loss, a healthy diet, and regular exercise are usually the first steps in PCOS treatment.
Any diet that aids in weight loss may be beneficial to your condition. However, depending on an individual’s lifestyle modifications, some diets may offer benefits over others.
