Although some women with PCOS have regular periods, high levels of androgens ('male' hormones) and excess insulin can disrupt the monthly cycle of ovulation and menstruation. If you have PCOS, your periods may be 'irregular' or stop altogether.
To help decrease the effects of PCOS, try to: Maintain a healthy weight. Weight loss can reduce insulin and androgen levels and may restore ovulation.

If you have PCOS, your periods may be irregular or stop altogether. To help decrease the effects of PCOS, try to: Maintain a healthy weight. Weight loss can reduce insulin and androgen levels and may restore ovulation. Limit carbohydrates. Low-fat, high-carbohydrate diets might increase insulin levels. Be active. Exercise helps lower blood sugar levels. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr SAMEEN BIN NAEEM, General & Family Physician
