PCOD

Treatment for PCOD varies depending on individual symptoms and needs. Over time, factors such as age and hormonal changes may necessitate adjustments to the treatment plan.

Weight Management: Weight loss is often an effective strategy for managing PCOD, although it can be more challenging compared to individuals without the condition. Seeking guidance from a dietitian or weight management expert is recommended. Crash diets should be avoided as they may exacerbate symptoms.

Ovulation Support: Due to insulin resistance commonly seen in PCOD patients, doctors may prescribe medications like metformin and troglitazone. These drugs aim to address endocrine imbalances, improve ovulation, and enhance fertility.

Surgical Intervention: In certain cases, laparoscopy may be recommended. This minimally invasive procedure involves using a laser to create small holes in the ovarian capsule. It is typically suggested for women with enlarged ovaries observed during ultrasound. By targeting abnormal tissue, the surgery can help restore normal ovarian function and promote regular ovulation.
