Quick Fact Check
1. What makes getting pregnant with PCOD difficult?
In PCOD, the hormonal imbalance causes the interference in the process of growth and release of eggs called ovulation. Such dysfunction causes a disturbance in the regulation of the normal menstrual cycle.
In the event of irregular periods, it becomes tricky to plan pregnancy as the patient is not aware of the window when ovulation will occur. However, as per Dr Jasmin Rath, you can get pregnant with PCOD with proper treatment and a healthy lifestyle.
2. What happens to the reproductive system of patients with PCOS?
With PCOS, the ovulation mechanism is usually out of balance. In patients with PCOS, the ovaries start developing cysts which carry male hormones, i.e. androgens. The excess production of androgen prevents follicles from releasing eggs on a regular basis and creates a hormonal imbalance.
The abnormal hormone levels interfere with the secretion of estrogen and progesterone e. which further disturbs the menstrual cycle leading to infertility.
3. How should I prepare myself for conceiving a child if I have PCOD?
According to the leading obstetric and gynaecology doctors in Hyderabad, patients can get pregnant while having PCOS. However, the preparation requires the patient to include nutritious food with low carb and fat and create a sustainable long-term lifestyle to keep hormonal imbalance in control.
In addition, certain hormonal and non-hormonal medications can also help with bringing the health of the reproductive system on track.
