PCOD or Polycystic Ovarian Disease, as the name suggests is a medical condition in which clusters of small sized cysts are formed in the ovaries. These cysts are fluid filled and contain immature eggs.
This disease usually occurs in the reproductive age of women , due to the hormonal imbalance. The female body starts producing more male sex hormone ‘androgen,’ due to which the normal menstrual cycles get disrupted. Risk factors are obesity , lack of physical activity/ sedentary lifestyle and family history of someone with the condition.
Even a 10 percent loss in body weight can help lessen the symptoms of PCOD which in turn help in restoring a normal period and regular cycle
