Frequently Asked Questions
Is PCOS curable?
PCOS is a manageable condition rather than a curable one — symptoms can be well controlled with the right long-term treatment plan.
Can hormonal disorders affect fertility?
Yes, conditions like PCOS and thyroid imbalance can affect ovulation, but many respond well to treatment aimed at restoring regular cycles.
When should irregular periods be evaluated?
If cycles are consistently irregular, very heavy, or accompanied by other symptoms, it’s worth having them assessed rather than waiting.
