The importance of the ovaries for women is well known, and any abnormalities in this area can pose a threat to the body's health. For example, polycystic ovary syndrome can affect women's physical health. Early diagnosis and treatment of the cause are very important, so what is the reason for polycystic ovary syndrome?
1. Family genetic factors: Bilateral polycystic ovary syndrome is a hereditary disease. Research has found that women with this disease have familial clustering, and genetics are also an important factor in causing bilateral polycystic ovary syndrome. If a family member has a patient, women must pay attention to physical examination and seek timely treatment if abnormalities are detected.
2. Endocrine axis dysfunction: The brain controls the entire body's organs, and any abnormalities can also affect the health of other organs. If women experience brain diseases, such as abnormalities in tissues such as the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, it can lead to hormonal imbalances in women. This can lead to the production of large amounts of androgens in tissues such as ovarian stroma and follicular membrane cells, inducing polycystic ovary syndrome in both ovaries.
3. Hyperprolactinemia: Women have prolactin receptors in their adrenal cortex. If a woman secretes a large amount of prolactin due to certain factors, it can stimulate the adrenal cortex and secrete excessive androgens, thereby inhibiting normal ovarian function and ultimately leading to polycystic ovary syndrome.
