Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, can be one of the most common hormonal disorders women of reproductive age can suffer with. The disorder can cause issues with your menstrual cycle, hormone levels, ovulation and getting pregnant. With the correct diagnosis and advice/treatment many women can successfully get pregnant.
At Bombay IVF & Gynac Clinic, Byculla, Mumbai we can offer an assessment by Dr. Varsha Bhat (Fertility & Gynaecology Specialist).
Getting advice from a fertility specialist early on can help identify the cause and correct treatment.
What Is PCOS & How Does It Affect Fertility?
PCOS causes hormonal and metabolic issues with the ovaries.
During ovulation the egg develops in a follicle. Women with PCOS will have hormonal imbalance in their bodies, this can affect your follicles and regular ovulation.
Causes include:
Irregular/missed periods
Irregular/no ovulation
Difficulties with fertile window
Raised androgen levels
Issues getting pregnant
PCOS can be treated. The treatment will depend on your age, ovarian function, medical history and fertility.
Common Symptoms Of PCOS
Many women will experience a range of symptoms. Some women may have more serious menstrual issues whereas others will have mainly fertility issues.
Common symptoms include:
Irregular/missed periods
Excess hair on face/body (Hirsutism)
Oily skin and spots
Weight gain
Hair loss
Difficulties getting pregnant due to irregular ovulation
Not all women will have all of these symptoms. An accurate clinical assessment is important.
Can You Get Pregnant With PCOS?
Yes! Many women can.
Whilst PCOS can cause irregularities with your egg release it does not mean you cannot get pregnant.
Many women with PCOS can get pregnant naturally. However some women may need some help with their ovulation.
There are many treatment options available including lifestyle changes, induction of ovulation, scans, IUI or IVF. Getting an early fertility consultation can help increase your chances of finding out the cause and treatment.
Testing & Diagnosis For PCOS Related Infertility
It is important to understand the cause of your hormonal issues.
At Bombay IVF & Gynac Clinic we can offer a fertility assessment including:
Medical & Menstrual History
How regular your periods are, how long you have been infertile, any previous pregnancies, weight issues and symptoms.
Hormone Profile (Bloods)
Depending on your symptoms we may do:
TSH (thyroid function)
Prolactin
LH & FSH
AMH (if clinically indicated)
Androgens (if needed)
Blood Sugar & HbA1c
Pelvis Scan
To look at your ovaries/antral follicles, uterus and endometrium.
Semen Analysis
An important test to complete. Both partners can be the cause of infertility.
Tubal Patency
We may advise you to have an HSG or other investigations to check your tubes are patent.
Not all patients will need all of the above tests. We will choose the correct tests for you.
Treatment Options For PCOS Related Infertility
Treatment will depend on the cause of your infertility, age, how long you have been infertile and any previous treatment.
Lifestyle Changes & Weight Loss
Lifestyle changes are key when suffering from PCOS.
Changes could include eating a healthy balanced diet with sufficient protein/fibre, exercising regularly, keeping a healthy weight, sleeping well and reducing sedentary activity.
Weight loss can help improve metabolism and regular periods for women with weight issues.
Induction Of Ovulation
Medication can be used to help stimulate your follicles.
Letrozole is the first line pharmacological treatment for anovulatory infertility caused by PCOS in women with no other contributing factors (International Evidence Based PCOS Guidelines 2023).
Clomiphene Citrate and Metformin may also be considered.
All medication should be taken under medical supervision. Scans may be required.
Intra Uterine Insemination (IUI)
Some couples may be advised to have an IUI if they are getting ovulation and tubes and sperm parameters are suitable.
Prepared sperm is inserted into the uterus.
Not all women with PCOS will need an IUI. This will depend on your complete fertility assessment.
IVF For PCOS
IVF may be advised if other treatments have not worked or other factors are affecting your fertility.
The ovaries are stimulated, eggs are retrieved and fertilised with sperm in the laboratory. A suitable embryo will then be transferred.
Women with PCOS are at increased risk of OHSS so individualised protocols will be used with close monitoring and preventative measures.
