PCOD Treatment In Kolkata

What is PCOD?

PCOD, or Polycystic Ovarian Disorder is a common hormonal disorder among females of reproductive age. This condition happens when the ovaries produce androgens at higher levels than normal. This hormonal imbalance causes several symptoms and complications that involve excessive hair growth, irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, acne, and weight gain.

The precise cause of PCOD is not known yet, however, genetics and environmental factors are identified to be playing a primary role. It is found that insulin resistance in which the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin is related to PCOD. This causes high levels of insulin leading to an increased androgen formation by the ovaries. 

If you observe signs like irregular periods, facial hair, acne, etc., book your appointment with one of the best gynecologists in Kolkata at CMRI Hospital. We have a team of highly skilled and renowned gynecologists with years of experience in their respective fields.

PCOD Treatment Options 

Treatment for PCOD targets to control symptoms and minimize the risk of complications. Here are some of the common treatment options involved by a healthcare expert:

  • Lifestyle Changes: Reducing weight with food and exercise assists in controlling the symptoms. Menstrual cycle regulation and insulin resistance reduction are achievable with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
  • Medication: Hormonal contraceptives like birth control pills reduce testosterone levels and control menstrual cycles. Anti-androgen drugs help minimize the symptoms such as excessive hair growth and acne. Metformin is one insulin-sensitizing drug that benefits insulin resistance and reduces testosterone levels.
  • Fertility Treatments: Drugs causing ovulation, like letrozole or clomiphene, help women to get pregnant. If other therapies are not working, in vitro fertilization (IVF) could be recommended. 
  • Management of Specific Symptoms: For irregular menstrual cycles, medications help in inducing regular periods. For acne, topical or oral medications are recommended. Excess hair growth is through methods like electrolysis or laser hair removal.
  • Surgery: In certain cases, surgery is recommended to remove ovarian cysts or to perform ovarian drilling. This procedure helps in stimulating ovulation in females who are not responding to other treatments.
