September being World PCOS awareness month, doctors are coming forth with the aim to raise awareness about the disease and its safe and effective treatment.
According to a survey done by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), one in four women in India suffer from the endocrine system disorder known as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), of these, about 20-25 per cent of these women are of reproductive age. The study was conducted on a sample size of 3,500. What is more alarming is that although the ailment is extremely common, there is very little awareness about it; with over 50 per cent of the women unaware that they are suffering from this disorder.

With symptoms such as irregular and painful periods, rapid weight gain, thinning and growth of hair on the face and body, PCOS often leads to self-esteem issues. And if it goes unchecked, it can contribute to long-term health problems like infertility, diabetes, heart disease and endometrial cancer as well.
While the diagnosis of PCOS may mean a lifetime of reproductive issues for many, what a lot of women do not know is that it can be treated with homeopathy and that they can lead a PCOS-free, healthy and normal life.
"In my 44 years of practice, I have seen more and more women presenting with symptoms of PCOS. Homeopathy offers safe, proven and cost-effective treatment methods for these young women suffering from PCOS. They are the backbone of healthcare in any society but often they ignore their own health. For a nation to be healthy, it is important that its women are healthy," said Padma Shri Dr Mukesh Batra, Founder & Chairman, Dr Batra's Group of Companies.
