Dealing With Infertility Caused By PCOS!

 


A common reproductive endocrine disorder called polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5% of women. When a woman has polycystic ovaries, her ovaries are enlarged and covered in numerous small cysts, which are actually immature eggs that have stopped developing. Additionally, these ovaries have a thick stroma that overproduces androgens. They may also have a changed FSH/LH ratio in the pituitary that prevents ovulation. Acne and hirsutism are other conditions brought on by excessive androgens.

 

What symptoms indicate polycystic ovaries?

Dr. Bhavana Mittal says “Usually, they will exhibit one or more of the following signs”:


●      Periods that are irregular and infrequent, with either a high or low flow.

●      Acne.

●      Hirsutism.

●      All of these symptoms become worse with weight gain.

●      The FSH to LH ratio can occasionally change along with an increase in the hormone test AMH.

 

*Consult IVF Delhi to confirm your symptoms of PCOS.

How likely is it to have PCOS?

An estimated 8–10% of women of reproductive age are thought to be affected by the polycystic ovarian syndrome. It occurs frequently.

 

What is the PCOS infertility rate?

Polycystic ovaries are associated with a very high rate of infertility. These women typically struggle to conceive and typically need treatment to increase their chances of getting pregnant.

Some polycystic ovary syndrome sufferers ovulate (release a mature egg) infrequently, while others never do. We must ovulate because sperm must locate and fertilize an egg that is mature in order to conceive.

 

What brings on PCOS?

Long-term anovulation leads to polycystic ovaries. It has a strong hereditary component. Additionally, the symptoms are made worse by weight gain and insulin resistance.

 

Why is PCOS a factor in infertility?

Anovulation is the cause of infertility in PCOS. Follicular growth and ovulation do not occur as a result of too much androgen and an altered hormonal environment.

 

What PCOS treatments are available to me if I want to become pregnant?


1.  The first and most important step in treating infertility caused by PCOD is weight loss. Spontaneous ovulation can happen with even a 5-7% weight loss.

 

2.  Ovulation induction is possible with a number of medications, including clomiphene citrate, letrozole, and gonadotrophins like FSH and HMG. Through performing serial follicular monitoring, the dosage should be adjusted. It also facilitates timed sexual activity.

 

3.  Adjuvant medications like metformin, my inositol, and low-dose steroids may also be used when the ovaries do not respond to these medications.

 

4.  Surgery: Laparoscopy and ovarian drilling may be options if the ovaries do not respond to ovulation-inducing medications. This is especially helpful for people with high LH and lean PCOS.

 

5.  If they are unable to conceive even after 6 cycles of ovulation induction and 3–4 cycles of IUI, IVF may need to be taken into consideration. During IVF, these women are at a high risk of developing ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Therefore, it is advised to use a GnRH agonist trigger rather than an HCG trigger. An ideal result is produced by a policy of freezing all embryos and frozen embryo transfer.

Connection Of Male Fertility And Mental Health!!

Image
  Male fertility is still strongly correlated with how men are perceived to be as men, even in modern times. This is a harmful argument for a number of reasons, including the fact that it can cause couples who are having trouble getting pregnant to ignore the male partner and only focus on the female partner for months or even years at a time, delaying helpful, time-sensitive treatments and parenthood needlessly. The notion that manhood and fertility are mutually exclusive is a harmful ideology for another very important reason that is deeply detrimental to male mental health.                              The Relationship Between Male Fertility And Mental Health   1.   Similar to female fertility, male fertility is regarded as a fundamental human need. Therefore, when you experience difficulty, it may seem like a character flaw. Male infertility is a medical problem; it is in no way an indication of a person's character. The opposite, however, has been the consensus of so
