What is PCOD, or PCOS? Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - Dr. Rashmi Chaudhary

PCOD is a common metabolic and endocrine abnormality in women of all age groups. It leads to the formation of multiple microcysts on the outer surface of the ovary. PCOD occurs due to the disturbed levels of oestrogen and progesterone, as well as increased levels of androgen, the male hormone in the female body. Although the cause of PCOD is not completely understood, genetics plays a crucial role - women whose mothers have PCOD are at higher risk of having PCOD. For more information, visit cloudninecare.com
