Our Take
PCOS should be taken care of in its early stages. Generally, it isn’t ever diagnosed or it is taken for granted that the disorder is minor. Early diagnosis helps to avert damaged fertility as well as to prevent complications of the disease.
Lifestyle modification is the first therapy that clinicians prescribe for PCOS, which sometimes performs well according to your timeframe and schedule. Diet, yoga or aerobic exercises are two successful ways of reducing weight.
