The purpose of this article was to convey information about polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), to reveal the information about the diagnosis of this syndrome and methods of treatment under various circumstances and reproductive plans. PCOS is now being diagnosed very often. However, frequently this is performed only on the basis of ultrasound diagnostics of the pelvic organs, which is not entirely correct. The picture of multi-follicular ovaries is just one of the symptoms of this syndrome, which may also indicate the presence of other disorders in the body.

This is the main reason why the wrong treatment is prescribed. After all, the wrong diagnosis is the key to the wrong treatment. It is important to understand that even with true PCOS, the most important thing is a woman's reproductive plans. When a woman has reproductive plans, COC therapy is out of the question. The realities of today are such that everyone needs to understand at least a little bit about the anatomy and physiology of their own body. This helps a lot to avoid misdiagnosis and, as a result, incorrect treatment, and also speeds up the search for the true cause of the problem. If misdiagnosed, the underlying problem is ignored, which can serve as a trigger for its aggravation and, as a result, its symptoms.

That is why everyone in our time needs to understand everything about it. So, for example, few people understand such things as: what is the menstrual cycle, how it should take place, what is its normal duration, what is the rate of discharge and in what periods of the menstrual cycle, is the pain normal at one time or another, and so on. Very often doctors of the old school prescribe, for example, COCs. Most importantly, this is often unnecessary. Also, in our society, after completing the COC course, the concept of "cancellation effect" was formed, which is not true.

Evidence-based medicine believes that eggs have several stages of growth and development, and only one of them is regulated by hormones. The rest of the stages proceed continuously and without stopping, and no exogenous or endogenous hormones can stop this. That is, the eggs always die regardless of whether you take COCs or not - this is an axiom. No method is able to prolong the childbearing age, since the ovarian reserve ends, it stops. The only thing that can save eggs is cryo-freezing. This method can be a solution for those who want to have their own children, but at the moment, for one reason or another, fertilization does not occur.

Yes, not all diseases can be cured, but even with those that are incurable, you need to learn to live and adapt, remove their manifestations and, if possible, reduce discomfort.

Even in the absence of complete recovery from a particular disease, it is necessary to understand that there are methods of physical therapy, diet and conventional drug therapy that can partially improve the condition. Recently, diet therapy has been actively discussed, namely the presence of a complete, balanced and rational diet for all, without exception.

In recent decades, fractional nutrition has shown its effectiveness. A balanced fractional nutrition allows you to provide the body with a sufficient amount of energy, to normalize the intestines, to ensure the normal functioning of the hormonal and nervous systems, etc.

What is PCOS and the main health problems in women associated with this syndrome? Can true PCOS be completely cured? The correct and complete diagnosis of PCOS and the main nuances of its "treatment" are offered.
