PCOD TREATMENT AT GENESIS IVF CENTER

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in

women, affecting an estimated five to ten million women of reproductive age.

For women trying to conceive a child, PCOS is a serious, common cause of infertility
– nearly half of all female factor infertility cases can be traced to PCOS.

New medical insight into the disease has led to treatment options, including insulin-
reducing ovulation medication (clomiphene, Glucophage, Metformin), dietary
changes (low glycemic diet) and surgery (ovarian drilling), which have proven
successful and allow many women to overcome PCOS and conceive a child
naturally, while reducing the risk of miscarriage.

Women who undergo treatment for PCOS but are still unable to conceive naturally
often turn to assisted reproductive technologies, including IVF, and experience high
pregnancy success rates.
