All about PCOS condition
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal condition that affects the ovaries of a woman.
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine condition that can impact how well the ovaries work. It can affect around 10% women in the UK.
- Many females at birth will have a large number of follicles (or cysts) on the ovaries, which are harmless. These develop over time, before releasing an egg during ovulation. With PCOS, it is difficult for the sacs to release the eggs, impacting ovulation.
Common symptoms of PCOS
- Irregular/absence of periods
- Fertility issues
- Acne
- Inflamed/oily skin
- Hair loss
- Excess body or facial hair
- Weight gain or difficulty to lose weight
How to diagnose PCOS?
If you have two of the following symptoms, you may be diagnosed with PCOS.
- Irregular or infrequent periods, indicating that the ovaries are not regularly releasing eggs (known as ovulation)
- High levels of androgen hormones, known as hyperandrogenaemia. These are a higher level of ‘male’ hormones in the body such as testosterone, which can lead to excess facial/body hair as a symptom.
- The presence of polycystic ovaries, which are follicles found on the ovaries
Test for PCOS
- A blood test is usually carried out, to measure hormone levels such as the androgen hormones.
- An ultrasound is also completed, which can show the presence of follicles on the ovaries. These follicles are the sacs in which eggs develop.

The two terms can often be used interchangeably, but a PCOS nutritionist may not be a qualified PCOS dietitian. A nutritionist can look at diet and lifestyle management, but a PCOS dietitian is trained and qualified to also support with health conditions related to PCOS such as diabetes and high cholesterol, unlike nutritionists.

No side effects, unless you decide to make too many changes at once which can be unsustainable and miserable! This is where working with a PCOS nutritionist or dietitian is key, to ensure safe changes are made in an agreed manner.

Typically, improvements can be seen within a month of working with a specialist. However, it can often take at least 3 months, due to the steady nature of the changes, to ensure sustained and long term success.
