Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a condition whereby multiple cysts develop on the ovary caused by irregularities in the ovulation process. This, in turn leads to a hormonal imbalance which can lead to various disruptions in the normal desired cycles within the body. The more severe the imbalance, the greater the chance of cysts developing.When faced with this condition, many women will try to turn to conventional treatment methods and may take prescribed hormonal treatments, such as the birth control pill. The problem is that whilst these may give some relief, this is only ever temporary as the root cause of the problem has never been addressed. Indeed, a frighteningly high proportion of women who use hormonal treatments find that the symptoms are worse than ever once they stop. On the other hand, using a natural cure for PCOS can be very successful, as it can result in the elimination of the root cause.PCOS can render a women temporarily infertile and other symptoms can also be experienced such as acne, facial hair and weight gain. It is not always possible to identify the exact cause in individual women, but rather it is thought that it is usually a combination of circumstances which bring about the condition.PCOS is linked with being overweight or obese and successful weight loss is the most effective method to restore normal menstruation. Although this is the best way to improve the symptoms, women find it very hard to sustain or even achieve significant weight loss. Some experts recommend a low Glycemic Index Diet which involves the eating of fruit, vegetables and whole grain products to make up most of the carbohydrates the body needs.
