Four points for effective prevention of polycystic ovary syndrome affecting women's beauty

The emergence of polycystic ovary syndrome poses a particularly serious threat to women, not only affecting their physical health, but also making them lose their beauty. We should pay attention to reasonable prevention in daily life.

The harm of polycystic ovary syndrome

1. Menstrual abnormalities: Rare or amenorrhea (accounting for 1/3 of amenorrhea patients and 90% of amenorrhea patients), some patients may experience continuous menstrual bleeding.

2. High incidence of pregnancy complications: once pregnancy, the risk of pregnancy induced hypertension syndrome and pregnancy induced diabetes is significantly increased.

3. Infertility: The most prominent feature of polycystic ovary syndrome is the absence of ovulation. The ovaries only secrete estrogen and androgens, and do not secrete pregnancy hormones. Estrogen stimulates endometrial hyperplasia. Pregnancy hormone causes the endometrium to secrete a response. If the endometrium is exposed to estrogen for a long time without the action of pregnancy hormones, it will lead to endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer. In addition, it is also because patients with polycystic ovary syndrome are unable to ovulate and cannot conceive naturally. Polycystic ovary syndrome patients are the most common infertility patients. Impact on appearance: Hyperandrogenism is another important feature of polycystic ovary syndrome. The ovaries of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome secrete a large amount of androgens, resulting in excessive androgen production. These situations may have a negative impact on women's appearance.

5. High incidence rate of hypertension: research shows that 30 years later, the incidence rate of hypertension in such patients is 8 times higher than that in normal women, the incidence rate of diabetes is 6 times higher, the incidence rate of endometrial cancer and breast cancer is 2 times higher, and the ischemic heart disease and myocardial infarction are higher than those in the control group.

The causes of polycystic ovary syndrome

1. Hypothalamic pituitary dysfunction: Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have high LH values and normal or low FSH values, resulting in a ratio of LH/FSH exceeding 3. The response of LH to synthesized luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LH-RH) increases, and abnormal hypothalamic pituitary function is the starting factor for this syndrome. Elevated LH levels not only increase pulse amplitude but also frequency, which may be due to excessive peripheral androgens, The conversion of excessive androgens by aromatase continues to interfere with the function of the hypothalamic pituitary gland.

2. Abnormal adrenocortical function: some patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have increased androgen secretion, which may be due to the abnormal regulation of P450c17 enzyme complex in the adrenal cortex, which blocks the biosynthesis of steroid hormones from 17 Hydroxyprogesterone to estrogen deficiency enzyme. Abnormal adrenal function can affect abnormal hypothalamic pituitary ovarian axis relationship and secretion.
