A Healthy Natural Solution to Insulin Resistance

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex hormonal disorder that afflicts between 5% and 10% of all women. It is associated with a long-term lack of ovulation and an excess of androgens (male hormones). PCOS is one of the most frequent causes of infertility.

Women's Day Magazine for February 2001 listed PCOS amongst the "Top 12 Diseases Doctors Miss Most."

High Insulin levels due to insulin resistance may be a primary cause of PCOS, because elevated insulin levels lead to increased androgen levels. Many sufferers have found their symptoms reduced or eliminated by taking steps to reverse Insulin Resistance.

Symptoms of PCOS

There are multiple symptoms of PCOS and they vary from woman to woman. Technically, the disorder is characterized by the formation of several follicular cysts in the ovaries. These cysts are related to the ovary's failure to release an egg (ovum). In addition to cysts on the ovaries, symptoms of PCOS may include:

Elevated insulin levels
High blood pressure
Acne
Infertility
Excess hair on the face and body
Thinning of the scalp hair
Excess weight, especially around the mid-section
Irregular periods
Skin tags
High cholesterol levels
High blood pressure
Exhaustion and/or lack of mental alertness
Decreased sex drive

Even if specific symptoms are not causing an immediate problem, PCOS can have significant long-term effects, including diabetes, heart disease, and endometrial or breast cancer, so seeking treatment is critical.

PCOS is also known as Stein-Leventhal syndrome or functional ovarian hyperandrogenism.

Causes of PCOS

Since PCOS is a syndrome that probably includes different categories of diseases, it is likely that some instances are caused by genetic abnormalities while other cases are caused by lifestyle or environmental conditions. Either way, if you suffer from PCOS you will almost certainly benefit by losing excess weight through diet, exercise and natural remedies like the Insulite System.
