Anovulation

basically an inherited disorder and can be received from either parent. The chances of occurrence of this disorder vary from 5-10% among the females of age group of 12-45 resulting in female sub-fertility. This endocrine disorder can be identified by anovulation which is diagnosed by irregular menstruation, amenorrhea, polycystic ovaries, ovulation-related infertility, excessive secretion of androgenic hormones that cause hirsutism and acne. High cholesterol level, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance are

Imagine a syndrome that can cause you, or a woman you know, to be infertile, depressed, anxious, obese, or hirsute, along with many others. Polycystic ovary syndrome can cause all of these issues in a woman who is affected by the condition. If it is not treated properly or on time, it could lead to other serious medical issues that could even be life threatening. Polycystic ovary syndrome, otherwise known as PCOS, is not a commonly known syndrome and many women affected by it are not diagnosed or

Abstract Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder diagnosed in women of reproductive age. The disease manifests itself with varying symptoms and has long term consequences of heart disease, diabetes, and infertility. PCOS has no clear etiology or pathophysiology, and as new information is being contributed, the mechanism and components of the disease is being updated. Presented here are the most understood and accepted components of PCOS, and its pathology as a reproductive

As James Austen quoted Infertility messes with your mind and life in various forms until you become hopeful and change your mind beliefs and make new choices. Infertility is “a disease of the reproductive system defined by the failure to achieve a clinical pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse (1)also with the criteria that evaluation must be initiated sooner in patients who have risk factors for infertility or if the female partner is older than 35 years.(2)

resistance and altered intraovarian paracrine signalling, which disrupt the growth of ovarian follicles. Arrested follicular development results in menstrual irregularity, polycystic ovaries, further hyperinsulinaemia and excess androgen production2,7. Anovulation is the predominant cause of infertility in PCOS8, with fewer women experiencing impaired oocyte development resulting in miscarriages9. The optimal treatment for infertile women with PCOS is not well established. In 2011 a team of specialists developed

clinical feature of polycystic ovary syndrome is anovulation. Anovulation is the absence of ovulation. Ovulation is the process in which the ovary releases an egg into the Fallopian tube. If an egg is not present to meet the sperm in the Fallopian tube, then conception cannot take place. If a woman is not ovulating then she is not able to conceive. Therefore, anovulation is the most common cause of infertility (Raffone, Rizzo and Benedetto 275). Anovulation is a symptom of insulin resistance. Insulin

Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder affecting 5-10% of women in the reproductive age group (5,13). PCOS is diagnosed according to Rotterdam criteria, when at least two out of three criteria are met: presence of polycystic ovaries, anovulation and/or oligoovulation and excess androgen activity not associated with another endocrine pathology (11,12). Risk Factors/Pathogenesis: The pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome is not known, and potential etiologies are explored in a recent

I have always been mature for my age, growing up an only child kind of does that to you. I had to watch over my little cousins quite often and at that time in my life, I dreaded babysitting. The crying, the screaming, the tantrums; they annoyed me to no end. Olivia, being the youngest, would say, “your not the boss of me!” Umm, actually I am while your parents are away, so please just listen to what I ask of you. After two long years of babysitting, I had decided I really did not like kids, that

My strengths and weaknesses characterize my identity. My strengths help me improve as a better person and my weakness keep me battling to be that better individual. By knowing my own individual strengths, I am able to expand on them and utilize them to my advantage. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Life is a learning process to me, therefore recognizing and knowing our qualities and shortcomings can help us learn, enhance, and develop. It does not make a difference in the event that
