CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - September is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Awareness Month. PCOS is a hormone-related condition that can affect the way the ovaries work. Some women may have irregular cycles, acne or more body hair than usual. Others may find it harder to conceive. This condition can also raise the risk of diabetes, weight gain and heart problems. Despite being common, many still don’t recognize the signs or understand how it affects long-term health. The awareness month pushes this conversation into the open. It helps more people spot symptoms sooner and seek the right care.
