When To Call A Professional

If you have any of the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome, you should see your health care professional, especially if you have had irregular or absent periods for more than six months.

Prognosis

With treatment, symptoms may improve or go away. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome need to pay strict attention throughout their life to ways they can reduce their risks of heart disease and diabetes.
