Polycystic o***y syndrome is a hormonal condition in which a woman’s hormones are out of balance, having higher amounts of male hormones. PCOS is associated with overweightness, which causes a concern considering that some American doctors are somewhat notorious for refusing to give adequate care to women who are plus-sized, blaming any and sometimes all ailments on their weight. This issue along with controversy over diagnostic methods when most common symptoms are all not present in a patient (hirsutism, irregular menstrual cycles, obesity) creates more possibility to neglect and/or dismiss a patient’s symptoms.
