Answered by Dr. Chetna Jain (23 hours later)

Hi
The problem with PCo is that it has to be kept under control thru diet and exercise
Low carb diet and regular exercise is a must
Stop eating sugars altogether altogether
Try homeopathic treatment
You may try taking combined pills for eg XXXXXXX
Metformin can also be taken for long time with regular monitoring of liver function tests
The only permanant remedy is weight control only

Thank you so much. Will there be any serious impacts on Fertility front because of this?

Answered by Dr. Chetna Jain (5 hours later)

PCO is present in about 22 % of women of reproductive age
About a third of these women may have delay in conception
Interestingly a severe PCO may conceive without much help and a mild case may take long
Overall most of the women with PCO conceive
A lot of medications areavailable for ovulation as there is poor ovulation in many
Overall outcome of fertility is satisfactory
The conception rates are higher in thin patients
There are long term implications like higher chances of diabetes and high BP etc
