Srinagar, Dec 20: Hormonal imbalance and sedentary lifestyles are some of the major reasons behind the rising cases of Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) in Kashmir, doctors said. However, with timely medication and lifestyle changes, PCOD can be managed effectively, they added.

Dr Barjasta Bahar, a gynaecologist at DHSK, said that PCOD occurs when the ovaries produce excessive amounts of male hormones (androgens), which leads to the formation of multiple cysts in the ovaries.

“These cysts are immature follicles that fail to release eggs during the menstrual cycle, disrupting ovulation,” she said.

She added that the major causes of PCOD are hormonal imbalances, such as excessive androgen production disrupting normal ovulation, poor diet, lack of physical activity, obesity, insulin resistance and genetic factors.

Dr Bahar said that PCOD can lead to infertility as difficulties in ovulation make it harder to conceive. It can also cause irregular periods, weight gain, acne, excessive hair growth and mental health issues.

Dr Rukhsana, another gynaecologist, told KNO that PCOD has long-term health risks, including Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and endometrial cancer.  “Regular exercise and a balanced diet help regulate hormones and insulin levels,” she said, adding, “People should focus on foods with a low glycemic index, such as whole grains, lean proteins and vegetables, and avoid processed foods and sugary snacks.” 

Dr Rukhsana also underlined the importance of staying active, managing stress and ensuring early diagnosis and regular monitoring to prevent complications.

Doctors said that hormonal therapy, insulin-sensitising drugs and other prescribed medications can help regulate periods and alleviate symptoms.

They said that PCOD is a manageable condition, adding that with lifestyle changes and timely medical interventions, women can reduce its impact on their lives and overall health.
