ABSTRACT

The most common endocrine condition in women is polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). The disruption of reproductive and metabolic processes ranges from moderate to serious in clinical manifestation. Some of the more common dermatological symptoms include hirsutism, acne, infertility, and acanthosis nigricans. Women who have these dermatological manifestations should be tested for PCOS. The pathogenesis of PCOS is explained as a rise in luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion due to a change in gonadotropin-releasing hormone secretion. Hyperinsulinemia and insulin tolerance are caused by changes in insulin secretion and behavior. A deficiency in androgen synthesis causes increased ovarian androgen activity. To combat weight gain, healthy lifestyle measures such as calorie restriction, avoidance of high carbohydrate diets, restricted fat consumption, high fibrous diet, and avoidance of junk food are critical. Women who have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are more likely to have metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and endometrial cancer. Herbal medicines, such as various types of natural seeds, are also widely utilized to treat a variety of ailments such as polycystic ovary syndrome and its manifestations, as well as its related signs and symptoms.
