Common signs to look out for include inconsistent menstrual periods or abnormally high presence of Androgen - a male hormone. Ovaries may also lag in releasing eggs and develop small fluid collections called follicles. Finding out if you have PCOS in its early stage and getting the right treatment are your best ways of staying safe or effectively managing the condition. Such early diagnosis and treatment will also help rule out your chances of developing secondary complications like heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Here are common causes of Polycystic ovary syndrome:

- Skyrocketing Insulin levels

Insulin has been hugely linked with PCOS. When low on insulin, the body tries to solve this problem by producing more of it in a bid to regulate your blood sugar. In excess amount, however, insulin might enhance androgen production, ultimately leading to difficult ovulation.

- Low-grade Inflammation

A term that describes the defence mechanism of white blood cells to fight infection, a certain type low-grade inflammation is present in women with PCOS that enhances the production of androgens by polycystic ovaries, a situation that triggers a myriad of heart and blood vessel conditions.

- Heredity

It is also believed that individuals with a family history of PCOS might have a higher chance of developing the condition if they carry certain PCOS - linked genes.

- Excess androgen

Dysfunctional ovaries may produce staggering levels of androgen, which triggers acne and hirsutism and can lead to PCOS.

Having considered these risk factors, it's just as important to watch the food options you consume and see the link they have on your general health. Preventing the development and progression of PCOS is undoubtedly enhanced with a good dietary lifestyle and early diagnosis.
