PCOS is a hormonal imbalance that is linked to the way the body processes insulin after it has been produced by the pancreas. The disorder affects more than 5 million teen girls and women of childbearing age, and it’s the leading cause of infertility. In this easy-to-follow narrative, readers learn about the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian hormones and the symptoms of PCOS. Details about diagnosis, treatment, and managing the condition are also engagingly presented.
