Podcasts about polycystic

PCOS is one of the most common hormonal disorders affecting women globally; affecting roughly 13% of women who have a menstrual cycle. The World Health Organization has estimated that up 70% of women with PCOS worldwide do not know they have this condition. Symptoms can include irregular periods, fertility issues, weight gain, acne, excess hair growth and insulin resistance. There is no cure. And now Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is officially being reclassified as polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS). The new name reflects growing recognition that the condition involves much more than ovarian cysts alone. It's actually a complex endocrine condition (to do with hormones) which affects the whole body. Experts hope that the name change will lead to a better focus on treating and reversing some of symptoms. Global health reporter Dorcas Wangira in Kenya explains what we know about the condition. And we hear from Professor Helena Teede, from Monash Univerity in Australia, who led the name-changing initiative. Jenef Ngombo, 25 from the UK and Chelle Robotham, in Florida USA, share their experiences of PMOS/PCOS and tell us what they think about the name change.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), one of the most common hormonal conditions in women, just got a new, more accurate name: polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome, or PMOS. In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD breaks down what drove this historic rename, what the new name reveals about the condition's actual impact on insulin resistance, cardiovascular risk, and weight, and what's changed in how PMOS is diagnosed. If you've ever been diagnosed with PCOS, struggled with insulin resistance, weight gain, or hormonal issues, this episode is essential listening. Discover what the new name means, how the diagnosis is evolving, and why PMOS deserves attention well beyond the reproductive years.Thanks for listening!

The long-term hormonal condition affecting one in eight women worldwide has a new name — Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). Long known as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), the term was increasingly considered misleading and scientifically inaccurate. Now, after years of international research, including contributions from Australian health experts, the renaming aims to better reflect the condition's broader impact on the body. This explainer examines how PMOS extends beyond the ovaries, affecting metabolism, skin, reproductive and mental health. Hear from Australia-based women navigating life with a condition that still has no known cure. - ਹਰ ਅੱਠ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਇੱਕ ਔਰਤ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਭਾਵਿਤ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਾਰਮੋਨਲ ਅਸੰਤੁਲਨ ਰੋਗ ਦਾ ਨਵਾਂ ਨਾਮ Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) ਘੋਸ਼ਿਤ ਕੀਤਾ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ। ਇੱਕ ਅੰਤਰਰਾਸ਼ਟਰੀ ਪਹਿਲਕਦਮੀ, ਜਿਸ ਵਿਚ ਆਸਟ੍ਰੇਲੀਅਨ ਸਿਹਤ ਮਾਹਿਰ ਵੀ ਮੌਜੂਦ ਸਨ, ਵਲੋਂ 14 ਸਾਲ ਸਾਲ ਲੰਬੀ ਖੋਜ ਦੇ ਅਧਾਰ ‘ਤੇ Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) ਨਾਮ ਨਾਲ ਹੋਣ ਵਾਲੀ ਉਲਝਣ ਨੂੰ ਸੁਧਾਰਣ ਦੀ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ ਕੀਤੀ ਗਈ ਹੈ। ਇਸ ਐਕਸਪਲੇਨਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾਣੋ ਕਿਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਇਹ ਰੋਗ ਨਾਂ ਸਿਰਫ ਅੰਡੇਦਾਨੀ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਭਾਵਿਤ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ ਬਲਕਿ ਚਮੜੀ, ਪਾਚਨ ਸ਼ਕਤੀ, ਅਤੇ ਜਣਨ ਸਿਹਤ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੀ ਸਮੱਸਿਆ ਪੈਦਾ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਜਾਣੋ ਬਿਨਾਂ ਸਪਸ਼ਟ ਇਲਾਜ ਦੇ ਰੋਗ ਨਾਲ ਜੂਝ ਰਹੀਆਂ ਔਰਤਾਂ ਦਾ ਅਨੁਭਵ ਅਤੇ ਨਵੇਂ ਨਾਮ ਉੱਤੇ ਪ੍ਰਤੀਕਿਰਿਆ।

Global health reporter Dorcas Wangira joins Claudia Hammond to discuss how renaming a common health condition affecting millions of women worldwide hopes to improve understanding, treatment and diagnoses. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has been renamed polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS).Dorcas also brings Claudia Hammond news of a controversial AI algorithm being used by the Kenyan Government to work out how much people should be charged for healthcare costs. We hear from Peru where researchers have been mapping pesticide use and cases of people getting cancer in a major new study. And from the USA where a study on our disease-fighting T cells shows that they become more effective after we've eaten a meal.Presenter: Claudia Hammond Producer: Hannah Robins, Georgia Christie and Jonathan Blackwell

Polycystic ovary syndrome, a condition that affects one in eight women, has been renamed in an attempt to cut down misdiagnoses.The hormonal disorder, estimated to impact 170 million women worldwide, will now be known as polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome.For more on this, Ciara is joined by Dr Caoimhe Hartley, Clinical Lead for Women's Medicine at Blackrock Health Women's Health Centre.

Polycystic ovary syndrome, also called PCOS, is related to hormonal imbalances in women's bodies. It's the leading cause of fertility problems in women and affects one in ten women of childbearing age in the UK, according to the NHS. Despite that, there is very little awareness about the condition. The most important thing there is to know about PCOS is that it leads to excessive production of androgen hormones, especially testosterone. High testosterone levels in women disrupt the ovarian cycle and, in particular, the development of fluid-filled sacs called follicles in the ovaries. How does it affect the body, apart from causing cysts? Is the disease still understudied? Do we know why some women produce too many androgens? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis touch far more than the reproductive system—they influence metabolism, mood, inflammation, digestion, sleep, and the way women feel in their bodies every day. In this episode of The Science of Self-Healing, we explore these conditions through a lens that views the body as a connected, intelligent system rather than a collection of separate parts. Learn how PCOS and endometriosis affect the whole body, why insulin, inflammation, and estrogen pathways matter, and which evidence-supported supplements may help. You'll also see how stress, sleep, nutrition, movement, pelvic-floor therapy, and acupuncture support hormonal balance, along with the shared patterns that make both conditions responsive to a multi-therapeutic approach. If you've ever wondered why symptoms feel so widespread—or why standard treatments sometimes fall short—this episode offers clarity, encouragement, and a grounded view of what whole-body healing can look like.

Steph Lowe is a triathlete, Sports Nutritionist and the Founder of the Natural Nutritionist.Steph was first on the podcast in August, 2018 (episode #69) where we had a wide-ranging discussion about nutrition - specifically the benefits of adopting an LCHF lifestyle on everything from your hormones, weight, PMS, mood, immune system, gut health and even 3:30itis.I asked Steph to return to the show so we could ‘deep dive' into one specific health issue that affects millions of women; Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and the impact your diet and nutrition can have (both in contributing to the disease and reversing it).If you don't have PCOS, I'd encourage you to keep listening.Our discussion around PCOS is really part of a broader discussion around the topics of hormones and menstrual cycles and the impact of nutrition, stress, exercise, supplements, the contraceptive pill (amongst other things) on it.

Many people think of PCOS as just a reproductive issue - irregular periods or fertility struggles - but it affects much more. PCOS impacts metabolism, blood sugar control, mental health, digestion, skin, and inflammation, making it a complex, chronic condition that requires a whole-body approach.In this episode, I answer your top questions:Why do I gain weight no matter what I eat?Do I have to take progestin to trigger a period?Should I follow a low-carb or keto diet?Does HIIT exercise hurt my hormones? We also discuss the growing movement to rename PCOS to better reflect its full range of symptoms and improve understanding for both patients and healthcare providers. If this episode speaks to you, please leave a rating and review.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was first described in 1935 by Irving Freiler Stein and Michael Leo Leventhal at the Central Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Since that time, it has gone through several name changes: Stein-Leventhal syndrome, PCOD, and currently PCOS. Nonetheless, proponents and scientists are still recommending yet another name change for this syndrome, one that better incorporates the multi-metabolic dysregulation that it incorporates. PCOS is not simply a gynecological issue. It is a metabolic issue with implications for adverse obstetrical outcomes. In this episode we will review 2 recent publications, one from July 2024 and the other from August 27th, 2024. These two studies, in two separate journals, each a month apart, validate what others have previously reported: PCOS doesn't just affect gynecological health but it also impacts obstetrical health. Listen in for details.

[The LOdown] The Period Issue - Is it PCOS or Hypothalamic Amenorrhea? Polycystic ovary syndrome or PCOS is one of the most common causes of irregular periods in women. However, a less common but prevalent cause of irregular periods is Hypothalamic Amenorrhea or HA. Each condition shares similarities but also many differences to one another. As someone who was personally mis-diagnosed with PCOS, this is an issue near and dear to my heart. Once I was able to uncover the real root cause of my irregular cycles that's when I finally was able to recover my period and be on the way to recovering the many hormonal, metabolic and digestive symptoms that came with not having one for several years. In this episode I share what you should know about the cause of irregular periods, the similarities and differences between these conditions and how this impacts treatment. Tune in to learn more! A few things we chat about in this episode

Polycystic ovary syndrome, also called PCOS, is related to hormonal imbalances in women's bodies. It's the leading cause of fertility problems in women and affects one in ten women of childbearing age in the UK, according to the NHS. Despite that, there is very little awareness about the condition. The most important thing there is to know about PCOS is that it leads to excessive production of androgen hormones, especially testosterone. High testosterone levels in women disrupt the ovarian cycle and, in particular, the development of fluid-filled sacs called follicles in the ovaries. How does it affect the body, apart from causing cysts? Is the disease still understudied? Do we know why some women produce too many androgens? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS, affects an estimated 8-13% of reproductive-aged women, according to the ⁠World Health Organization (WHO)⁠. PCOS can cause hormonal imbalances, irregular periods, excess androgen levels, and cysts in the ovaries. It's also one of the leading causes of female infertility. Still, up to 70% of affected women remain undiagnosed worldwide. This needs to change. In this episode of From First Period To Last Period, Rescripted Co-Founder Kristyn Hodgdon sits down with Dr. Shannon Alexa of Main Line Fertility in Pennsylvania to discuss the signs & symptoms of PCOS and how to advocate for yourself with the condition — because 96-day menstrual cycles are not normal. Brought to you by Rescripted and Inception Fertility.

Polycystic ovary syndrome, commonly known as PCOS, is a is a hormonal disorder that can lead to numerous symptoms including irregular periods, weight gain, and excess body hair. PCOS, is one of the main causes of infertility affecting as many as 5 million people in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Learn about this condition and how it's managed from Enloe Health's OBGYN, Celeste Bailey Pace, MD, on this episode of Health Matters. 

Today, I'm going to share 22 signs of a magnesium deficiency. Sixty percent of magnesium is in the bone, 20% is in the muscle, 19% is in the soft tissue, and 1% is in the blood. Magnesium deficiency is the most overlooked deficiency because it cannot be detected by a blood test. The top causes of magnesium deficiency include: • Consumption of sugar and refined carbs • Alcohol consumption • Cirrhosis of the liver • NPK fertilizer leads to crops that are low in magnesium • Malabsorption from gut inflammation • Diuretics • PPIs • Gastric bypass surgery • Low vitamin D • Inflammation Diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease are all associated with low magnesium. The best sources of magnesium are leafy greens, almonds, and dark chocolate, but some of these foods contain oxalates. Oxalates block the absorption of magnesium. Meat, cheese, and shellfish contain magnesium and do not contain oxalates. Here are 22 surprising signs of magnesium deficiency: • Anxiety • Insomnia • Depression • Migraines • Restless leg syndrome • Muscle cramps • Fatigue • Tourette's syndrome • Oxidative cholesterol • High homocysteine levels • High blood pressure • Calcification of the arteries • Arrhythmias • Stroke • Metabolic syndrome • Polycystic ovarian syndrome • Kidney stones • Higher levels of calcium in the blood • Inflammation • Nystagmus • Asthma Neuromuscular excitability, or tetany, is the number 1 earliest sign of a magnesium deficiency. Tetany is a twitching of the muscles, often affecting the left eye. Magnesium is required for proper nerve function. When you're deficient, the nerves become more excited, leading to faster nerve impulses.

Historically PCOS symptoms like infertility, facial hair, and weight issues were intertwined with small cystic structures on the ovaries. In this episode, you will understand the origin of the term "polycystic ovaries" and what impact they have on fertility and symptoms. Let's explore how hormonal imbalances shape the narrative, leading to the association between these cystic structures and PCOS symptoms.Cysts and PCOSContrary to common belief, the cystic-like lesions of PCOS are not true cysts but rather clusters of follicles that fail to fully mature. We explore the delicate hormonal dance of FSH (follicular stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone) ratios, shedding light on the science behind the polycystic ovarian appearance. Learn to distinguish between polycystic ovaries and isolated single cysts that might cause discomfort, understanding that the latter is unrelated to PCOS.Diagnosing PCOS: A Deeper Look:The diagnostic criteria for PCOS require two out of three factors: elevated androgens, polycystic ovaries, and irregular periods. Let's talk about the significance of symptoms, and what if lab values fall within the normal range. The presence of root cause symptoms is a pivotal step for understanding your path to PCOS health. Gain insights into how doctors can assist you during the diagnostic process while realizing the limitations of conventional medical approaches in addressing the broader lifestyle and root causes of PCOS.By taking a proactive stance in your PCOS journey and embracing lifestyle adjustments, nutritional choices, and mindset habits that extend beyond conventional medical practices you can finally feel your body working with you instead of against you. By hitting play and tuning into this episode you will gain a better understanding of a holistic approach, the significance of ultrasound examinations, and so much more.

Alright, so what actually is PCOS? Let's break it down in today's episode. Polycystic ovary syndrome often results in anovulatory cycles which can mean long/irregular cycles and heavy menstrual bleeding. It's also often associated with hyperandrogenism. Sounds scary (and it could be) but that's the seven-syllable way to say that you may have acne, excess body hair where you don't want it (hi, chin), and a tough time losing weight. Last but not least--you guessed it--your ovaries may have multiple (poly) cysts on them.Do you have irregular/long cycles or missing periods?

Today I'm going to share some important information related to chronic kidney disease. 10% of cases of end-stage renal disease are related to polycystic kidney disease. Polycystic kidney disease has mainly been thought of as a genetic problem, and until fairly recently, many people thought you couldn't do much about genetic diseases. But it turns out that you can. Some of the top warning signs of polycystic kidney disease are increased risk of infection, urinary bleeding, reduced function of the kidneys, and high blood pressure. A recent study done on mice found that the ketogenic diet halted and reversed polycystic kidney disease in the mice. They also found that time-restricted eating created a similar effect. Another study found that the keto diet may reduce the risk of kidney stones as long as the person is also on a low-oxalate diet. Along with keto and consuming low-oxalate foods, consuming enough water may help reduce the risk of kidney stones. In the study on polycystic kidney disease, they found that the cysts absorb glucose and are dependent on glucose. Glucose can contribute to other kidney issues as well. A low-carb diet and fasting are both great ways to get your body to start making ketones. You can also take ketones. The best natural remedies for kidney problems: • Curcumin • Resveratrol • EGCG (in green tea) • Quercetin • Berberine What I would do for chronic kidney disease: 1. Take the above natural remedies 2. Go on a low-oxalate keto diet 3. Do intermittent fasting

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormonal disorder that can make it difficult for women to get pregnant. Contrary to its name, having PCOS doesn't mean your ovaries have cysts, but rather that your ovaries have a high number of follicles containing eggs that are often unable to mature. Symptoms of the condition include irregular or absent periods, high testosterone, excessive hair growth (hirsutism), and acne. PCOS definitely has it's challenges, but, having it does not mean you'll never have children or that your eggs cannot produce a healthy, beautiful baby. Plus, if you have it, you're totally not alone. About 7% of women have PCOS.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy affecting reproductive-aged women, with a prevalence between 10 to 13%. PCOS has a large component of Insulin Resistance at its core. This is not only a metabolic complication in gynecology, but also has adverse implications for pregnancy. Since metformin is a staple of PCOS care, not only for infertility but also for the metabolic syndrome in adults, a common question is what to do with that medication once conception occurs. Should metformin continue past conception, and if so...should it be stopped at a certain gestational age or continued until delivery. There is data to help with this clinical conundrum. In this episode we will review the data from 2001 up to the most recent ASRM PCOS management guideline for PCOS, which just came out-ahead of print- last month August 2023.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that can benefit greatly from diet and lifestyle therapies. In this episode Cody leads us in a discussion about  the best diet for PCOS, which should be part of a your treatment approach to this complex condition.Often, once diagnosed with PCOS the initial treatment options include hormonal birth control, Metformin, and perhaps Spironolactone. While all of these can be beneficial for some women, they aren't often enough in the management of PCOS symptoms. Tune into today's episode to learn how powerful nutrition and lifestyle strategies can be some of the most effective "medicine" for you.Did you learn something new today?

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder and one of the most frequent causes of infertility in women. It affects 5–20% of women of childbearing age. The pathogenesis of PCOS is still not fully understood; however, insulin resistance (IR) is known to have a central role in its pathogenesis. According to a cross-sectional study, IR is present in 75% of lean and 95% of overweight women with PCOS. This IR seems to have something else behind it: an imbalance in the ratio of 2 vital inositols! In the treatment of PCOS, metformin is the gold standard metabolic treatment. However, metformin may induce mild to severe gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. So, an evidence-based and data driven alternative is highly welcome…especially one that could be seen as “natural”. Can inositol, specifically myo—inositol, “reverse” some PCOS metabolic derangements? Can it help normalize cycles? The data may surprise you.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that affects around 10% of women in their reproductive years and can interfere with fertility and pregnancy. In today's episode, Dr. Loriana Soma joins us to talk about PCOS & pregnancy including fertility, gestation, and postpartum. If you've recently been diagnosed or gotten pregnant, you might be wondering how PCOS will affect your pregnancy and how you'll feel after having your baby.

In this episode, Erin discusses current trends in cardiovascular disease (CVD) through the lens of female biology and the observation that major adverse cardiac events in both sexes are on the rise. She walks through risk factors including LDL-cholesterol, apoB, and Lp(a) and makes the case for the importance of early preventative measures. She explains various interventions for reducing risk including a discussion of statins, GLP-1 agonists, PCSK9-inhibitors, and drugs that lower Lp(a). She goes in-depth on female-specific factors that contribute to CVD risk such as pregnancy, grand multiparity (having five or more children), oral contraceptives, menopause, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Additionally, she explains her approach with patients as it relates to the use of hormone replacement therapy and provides advice for people wanting to lower risk both through lifestyle changes and medications. We discuss: Erin's background in preventive cardiology and women's health [2:30]; Recent trends in cardiovascular disease in women, mortality data, and how it compares to cancer [5:15]; Why early preventative measures are critical for cardiovascular disease risk [13:15]; ApoB as a causal agent of CVD, and why high apoB levels are not being aggressively treated in most cases [19:45]; The rising trend of metabolic syndrome and other factors contributing to the regression in progress of reducing cardiac events [27:00]; GLP-1 agonists—Promising drugs for treating diabetes and obesity [33:30]; Female-specific risk factors for ASCVD (pre- and post-menopause) [37:15]; Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): prevalence, etiology, and impact on metabolic health, lipids and fertility [47:00]; The effect of grand multiparity (having 5+ children) on cardiovascular disease risk for women [52:30]; The impact of oral contraceptives on cardiovascular disease risk [55:00]; The effect of pregnancy on lipids and other metabolic parameters [58:45]; The undertreatment of women with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and how it increases lifetime risk of ASCVD [1:02:00]; How concerns around statins have contributed to undertreatment, and whether women should stop statins during pregnancy [1:09:45]; How Erin approaches the prescription of statins to patients [1:16:00]; PCSK9 inhibitors and other non-statin drugs [1:21:15]; Advice for the low- and high-risk individual [1:28:30]; The impact of nutrition, stress, and lifestyle on lipids and CVD risk [1:31:00]; Lp(a) as a risk enhancer for cardiovascular disease [1:41:15]; The effect of menopause on cardiovascular disease risk [1:50:30]; How Erin approaches decisions regarding hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for her patients [1:55:30]; The urgent need for more data on women's health [2:03:30]; Erin's goal of running a marathon in every state [2:09:45]; and More.
