The level of progesterone in the second phase of the cycle in women with PCOS may be reduced due to ovulation disorders. Hormonal…

Hyperandrogenism, i.e. increased concentration of androgens in the blood, is one of the main symptoms of PCOS and may lead to abnormal growth of body hair. Beard growth in women with PCOS is due to hormonal disorders, including increased production of androgens by the ovaries. Research shows that hirsutism (excessive facial hair growth) occurs in…

Acne in PCOS Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age and can cause acne.

People with PCOS have an increased risk of seborrhea due to increased activity of the sebaceous glands. Both seborrhea and PCOS can cause unpleasant…
