Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) are common hormonal disorders affecting women of reproductive age. Today, nearly 1 in 5 women suffer from PCOS/PCOD due to stress, unhealthy lifestyle, poor diet, and hormonal imbalance.
Early diagnosis and proper treatment can help manage symptoms and prevent long-term complications.
