Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is typically devoted to unstable periods or no menstruation at all.

People with PCOS typically have multiple cysts in their ovaries, caused by an overproduction of hormones called androgens.

According to research from 2019Trusted Source, between 33 and 83 percent of women living with PCOS also face obesity problems. Common symptoms include:

• Acne
• Hirsutism (excessive hairiness)
• Male pattern baldness
