PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) is the most common reproductive disorder found in women of childbearing age. Up to 15% of all women are estimated to have PCOS. Symptoms associated with PCOS include irregular menstural cycles, hirsuitism (excess facial hair), and weight gain caused by hormonal imbalance.

While there is currently no cure, there are lifestyle changes that will improve or minimize symptoms.
