Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Dr. Sqouras Christal Alfonso Burhan Sadiq In this research paper I will attempt to discuss the causes, symptoms and signs of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, as well as how it is diagnosed and treated. As someone who is suffering from this disease, I found my research to be very informative and educational, raising awareness for my own understanding, and it is my intention to ensure that this same awareness is translated in my research paper. What is Polycystic Ovarian
Before the oocyte retrieval, woman follows a hormonal therapy for 9-14 days in order to achieve the maturation of as many follicles as possible. In order to induce ovulation, woman will be injected with chorionic gonadotropin 36 hours prior to the normal ovulation which will also promote follicle maturation. Oocyte retrieval will start 36 hours after the injection and will last 15-20 minutes. The whole procedure takes place in the surgery room which is designed in a unique way in order to communicate

Biological differences between men and women contribute to many sex-specific illnesses and disorders. Historically, it was argued that such differences were largely, if not exclusively, due to gonadal hormone secretions. However, emerging research has shown that some differences are mediated by mechanisms other than the action of these hormone secretions and in particular by products of genes located on the X and Y chromosomes, which we refer to as direct genetic effects. Gonadal or sex hormones

The model assumes that ovulatory cycles would ensue once the average serum prolactin concentration has fallen to a threshold below which ovulation suppression no longer can be maintained. The hypothesis that the pattern of suckling stimulation determines the extent of the fertility suppressing effect was suggested in a review by McNeilly et al. Wood et al. developed a similar hypothesis
when too much is produced and stops ovulation. A woman is born with all the eggs she will ever have for the rest of her life. At the time of ovulation, the egg develops and is called a follicle. In those follicles, a small amount of fluid is starting to gather. If the egg goes into full maturity and ovulation happens, the follicle will become enlarged. Each month during the normal ovarian cycle some follicles will begin to develop but never make it to ovulation. The follicle cells help convert androgen
condition of the endocrine system that affects women, which can cause infertility in women of reproductive age. Women with PCOS have abnormal cysts in at least one of their ovaries which cause the eggs not to fully mature and be released during ovulation. The female reproductive organs are the uterus, ovary, and fallopian tubes. The ovary is located laterally left to uterus and inferior to the fallopian tubes. An ovary contains about two million follicles oocyte at birth. Majority will die off and
