Obesity has a profound effect on the clinical manifestation of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal disorder affecting up to 50% of women in South Asia. About 50% of women with PCOS are overweight, and this increase in body weight has a major influence on the symptoms of PCOS and fertility. The main clinical features are menstrual cycle disturbance and an increase in male hormones (hyperandrogenism), causing acne, unwanted bodily and facial hair, and alopecia.

It is a proven fact that obesity exacerbates the PCOS condition and its symptoms. Studies have proven than reducing even 10% of the body weight can be very effective in regulating the menstrual cycle and the ovulation. Reducing weight can eventually reduce the androgen levels and relieve you of some of the embarrassing symptom like acne and facial hair. Doctors agree and recommend that weight reduction makes infertility treatments to be more effective.
