Q. Having PCOS, How to regularize the menstrual cycle?
Hi doctor,
I am 23 years old. I am really worried and fed up with my fat thighs and hips. As I am suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome and I used to miss my menses. Now, my menstruation is regular. But, whenever I skip physical exercise I am sure that I will miss my menses. I think these all are the reasons for my fat thighs and hips. Sometimes, this problem makes me frustrated. Please suggest me some measure.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- As you are a case of PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), which brings obesity and insulin resistance along with it.
- Consult a doctor for medical advice to lose weight and improve insulin resistance to allow regular menses to occur. Also it is important to maintain healthy ovulation and hormonal balance.
- Your water intake should be increased to 5-6 liters a day. Also, complete avoidance of fast food is necessary and exercises should be continued.
- I suggest you to get a hormonal profile, serum testosterone, fasting insulin and thyroid levels done to decide whether medication is necessary.
