Is a condition which is usually just as confusing to the patient as well as most doctors and is often misdiagnosed. The tiny cysts on the ovarys are actually not the main trouble but the women's hormones and sensitivity to such variables as Carbohydrate, insulin, testerone, cholesterol and blood pressure.

PCOS can come in many forms and a woman might only show signs of one or some symptoms.

The five main facts are:

1. Acne
2. Irregular periods
3. Weight Gain
4. Abnormal Metabolism
5. Depression

All the above symptoms cause a great self-esteem problem which then starts to become a quality of life issue.

You can ask your electrologist if you might need to be referred to a endocrinologist or gynecologist to help with these problems.
