also notes that not all instances of polycystic ovaries are classified as PCOS. Nearly a third of women have polycystic ovaries, but a smaller number, about 10 percent, actually have PCOS.

Health conditions associated with PCOS

1. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome often experience irregular or infrequent menstrual cycles.

2. Many women with PCOS have excess hair growth on their faces, chests or abdomens.

3. PCOS can lead to fertility problems.

4. Women with PCOS have an increased risk of diabetes; 30 percent have pre-diabetes and about 10 percent have type II diabetes.

5. PCOS can increase the risk of heart disease, due in part to higher-than-normal levels of LDL cholesterol (also known as the “bad cholesterol”).

6. Women with PCOS may have an increased chance of getting endometrial cancer, which is cancer of the lining of the uterus.
