In modern society, due to high work pressure, fast pace of life, and lack of attention to maintaining their own health, many women often experience sub-health symptoms. The ovaries are one of the most important parts of the female body, and their health can bring a healthy baby to a family. If they have problems, it can easily lead to infertility. One prominent disease in ovarian problems is polycystic ovary syndrome. Can polycystic ovary syndrome lead to infertility?
Can polycystic ovary syndrome lead to infertility
Polycystic ovary syndrome, also known as polycystic ovary disease, is still unclear about its causes. At present, the medical community believes that this disease is mainly related to endocrine dysfunction. Endocrine disorders are often caused by factors such as mental stress, drug abuse, or other illnesses. Due to a decrease in follicle stimulating hormone secreted by the pituitary gland and an increase in luteinizing hormone, the follicles in the ovaries cannot mature and ovulate, resulting in the formation of cystic follicles, which eventually become polycystic ovaries.
Polycystic ovary formation is mainly characterized by ovulation disorders. We know that the surface of the ovary is covered with a layer of tunica albuginea. Under physiological conditions, an egg gradually develops into a follicle from the germinal layer below the tunica albuginea every month, and finally breaks through the tunica albuginea and is discharged into the pelvic cavity. This process is called ovulation. It usually takes 13-15 days for eggs to develop and mature. Eggs released early are immature, while eggs released later are too mature and cannot be fertilized. Therefore, polycystic ovary syndrome can lead to infertility.
What to eat for polycystic ovary syndrome
1. Female patients should choose foods with low glycemic index and carbohydrates that are low in blood sugar to prevent it from rising too quickly. Try to eat grains of oatmeal is absolutely better than cereal Congee, and cereal Congee is better than instant cereal or wheat flour; Five grain rice is better than white rice. Eat more hard grain bread and fruits.
2. Female patients should avoid eating carbohydrates and try to eat them together with protein, fat, and vegetable fiber to reduce absorption rate. The weight loss process, combined with hormone, blood glucose, and blood fat testing by a physician, should serve as a reference for nutritionists to adjust their dietary ratios.
From the above introduction, it can be seen that polycystic ovary syndrome can lead to infertility. However, with the development of medicine, many diseases can be controlled or treated. Polycystic ovary syndrome is like this. As long as it is treated in a timely manner, pregnancy can still be achieved. We hope that women who suffer from this disease will not shy away from seeking medical treatment, and early treatment will yield early results.
