    Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

    PCOS: Understanding Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

    Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal condition that affects women during their reproductive years. Many patients often ask, “is PCOD and PCOS same?” In medical practice, PCOS and PCOD are considered similar, and the treatment approach is also the same.

    What is PCOS and PCOD?

    • Full form of PCOS: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

    • Full form of PCOD: Polycystic Ovarian Disease

    When discussing PCOS and PCOD meaning, both describe a condition where hormonal imbalance leads to irregular periods, multiple ovarian cysts, and fertility challenges.

    PCOS and PCOD Symptoms

    Wondering “how to know if you have PCOS or PCOD?” Look out for these signs:

    • Irregular or missed menstrual cycles

    • Excessive hair growth on face or body

    • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight

    • Acne and oily skin

    • Thinning scalp hair

    • Difficulty conceiving

    These are the most common symptoms of PCOS and PCOD, and they may vary in severity.

    Causes of PCOS and PCOD

    The causes of PCOS and PCOD are often linked to:

    • Hormonal imbalance (high androgens, insulin resistance)

    • Family history

    • Stress and poor sleep

    • Sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy diet

    Difference Between PCOS and PCOD

    Patients often ask about the difference between PCOS and PCOD or the pcod vs pcos difference. In reality, there is no major difference in diagnosis or management. While terms may differ, the symptoms of PCOS and PCOD and the treatment plan are the same.

    So, “are PCOS and PCOD same?” – Yes, in practical terms, they are managed in the same way.

    A very nurturing experience, despite being fairly new to Moolchand!

    To be a doctor means much more than to dispense pills. To be a doctor is to be an intermediary between man and God. Dr. Rajesh Meena is one such doctor by whom I was treated for my typhoid. He gives his complete dedication to his patients. He is honest and consistently positive. 

    Though my case was challenging, Dr. Rajesh made me feel safe and assured. I thank him for all his efforts. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Rajesh to anyone looking for quality care.
