Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects a whopping 1 in 8 women. It’s like a secret club and its mascot is a big question mark – ‘cysts’ aren’t even a symptom! It’s no wonder then that those diagnosed with the condition - and even those doing the diagnosing – are often left scratching their head when it comes to treatment and testing. But have no fear! Dedicated endocrinologist and research fellow Dr Jillian Tay from Monash University is here to break it all down for us. Chatting to host Dr Sneha Wadhwani, she answers questions like, ‘will I ever be able to have children?’ and ‘will I ever be able to lose weight?’ as well as what PCOS is and why your symptoms might look different to someone else’s. And if you suspect you have the condition but aren’t quite sure, Dr Tay and Dr Wadhwani have you covered, discussing testing requirements and even how to bring up the conversation with your trusted health professional.
