Poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome or PCOS as it is commonly known, is a hormonal disorder that affects one among every ten women. It is generally caused when the woman’s body produces and excess of androgen, the hormone responsible for developing masculine features.

Here are some facts on PCOS:

Women with PCOS do get their periods. In fact, for some of them their cycles are even regular.

It is a common misconception that women with PCOS either rarely get thor periods or have irregular periods. However, this need not be true. Most women with PCOS have irregular periods and some even have periods that are quite regular.

Diet and Exercise can considerably improve PCOS

While it is commonly believed that PCOS can not be alleviated, it is far from the struth. Studies have shown a relationship between cholesterol levels and PCOS. By having a balanced diet and partaking in exercise, one can definitely improve PCOS.

Women with PCOS build muscle faster than those without PCOS

As mentioned previously, the concentration of androgens is higher in women with PCOS. This makes muscle building much easier.

Sleep Disturbance can exacerbate PCOS and Vice Versa

If you have PCOS, ensure that you sleep for at

least 6 hours every night. This can help alleviate the symptoms to some extent.

Remember that you aren’t alone. Several women battle PCOS successfully. If you suspect that you have PCOS, consult a gynaecologist and seek treatment at the earliest possible instance.

Tubal Factor

Tubal Factor Infertility (TFI) is a female infertility condition that is induced by infections, blockages, injury, bruising, or other triggers that inhibit the development of an embryo or unfertilized ovum into the womb through the fallopian tubes, preventing natural conception and full-term delivery.

While it is important to note that tubal disease contributes to 25-35% of female factor infertility and 11-30% of infertility in general, depending on the population characteristics, the main cause of tubal infertility is salpingitis. Salpingitis accounts for more than 50% of the cases as well as tubal surgery.

The causes for tubal diseases can be proximal causes such as Mucus plug, Cornual spasm, Salpingitis, PID, Endometriosis, Cornual Polyp and Intrauterine Synechiae. The distal causes can be caused due to issues such as PID, Tuberculosis, Tubal damage from previous surgery, and Endometriosis.

However, Tubal Factor Infertility problems can be treated medically or surgically via reconstructive surgery, micro surgical techniques and sterilization-reversal, in case the patient has a history of sterilization.

In vitro fertilisation and embryo transfer is the best option to achieve intrauterine pregnancy in severe tubal disease. In vitro fertilisation is also the best option for tubal infertility.
