Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the commonest hormonal conditions in women of reproductive age. It causes irregular periods, acne, unwanted hair growth, weight gain and difficulty in conceiving, and it raises the long-term risk of diabetes and heart disease. This page explains the symptoms, causes, tests and conventional treatment of PCOS, and how Welling Homeopathy treats it.

PCOS at a glance
- What it is: a hormonal condition with irregular ovulation, raised male hormones and often insulin resistance.
- Main symptoms: irregular or absent periods, acne, excess facial and body hair, scalp hair thinning and weight gain.
- Why it matters: it can affect fertility and raises the long-term risk of diabetes, high cholesterol and heart disease.
- Key tests: pelvic ultrasound, hormone tests, thyroid, prolactin and blood sugar.
- Our approach: individualised, non-hormonal homeopathic treatment.
What is PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)?
In PCOS the ovaries may not release an egg regularly, and the body makes more male hormones (androgens) than usual. Many women also have insulin resistance, which makes it easier to gain weight and harder to lose it. The small follicles seen on an ultrasound are not true cysts, and some women with PCOS do not have them. The terms PCOS and PCOD are often used interchangeably in India.
Lifestyle changes, supported by treatment when needed, can restore more regular cycles and reduce the long-term risks.
Symptoms of PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)
Common symptoms include:
- Irregular, infrequent or absent periods
- Acne and oily skin
- Excess dark hair on the face, chest or abdomen
- Thinning hair on the scalp
- Weight gain, especially around the abdomen
- Dark, velvety patches of skin on the neck or armpits
- Difficulty in conceiving
- Mood changes, tiredness and poor sleep
Causes and risk factors of PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)
Common causes and risk factors include:
- Insulin resistance
- Raised levels of male hormones
- A family history of PCOS or diabetes
- Excess weight, which worsens insulin resistance
- A sedentary lifestyle and a diet rich in refined carbohydrates
- Low-grade inflammation in the body
- Stress and poor sleep
- Hormonal changes around puberty
How PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) is diagnosed
PCOS is diagnosed from your history, examination and tests:
- Pelvic ultrasound to look at the ovaries
- Hormone tests such as testosterone, LH, FSH and prolactin
- Thyroid tests to exclude other causes of irregular periods
- Blood sugar, insulin and cholesterol tests to look for insulin resistance
- A history of your cycle, hair growth, acne and weight
Warning signs: when to get urgent help
Please go to the nearest hospital emergency department immediately if there is:
- Sudden, severe pelvic or abdominal pain, especially with fainting or vomiting
- Very heavy vaginal bleeding that soaks through pads quickly
- Signs of high blood sugar such as extreme thirst, passing urine very often or unexplained weight loss
- No periods for more than three months, or trying to conceive for a year without success (this needs assessment, not an emergency)
Conventional treatment options
Conventional treatment depends on your symptoms and whether you want to conceive:
- Lifestyle changes: healthy weight, exercise and a balanced diet, which improve insulin resistance
- Hormonal contraceptive pills to regulate periods and reduce acne and hair growth
- Metformin for insulin resistance, in some women
- Anti-androgen medicines for hair growth and acne
- Ovulation-inducing medicines and fertility treatment for women trying to conceive
