What Is PCOD / PCOS? (Mahila Hormonal Problem)

PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) / PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) is one of the most common hormonal disorders affecting women of reproductive age. The condition occurs when the ovaries produce excess male hormones (androgens), leading to irregular periods, difficulty in ovulation, and metabolic health concerns. An ultrasound appearance alone does not establish the diagnosis, and ovarian cysts are not required.

At R.K. Hospital & Research Centre, Indrapuri, Bhopal, we provide comprehensive PCOD/PCOS care with experienced gynaecologists Dr. Veena Pandey (MBBS, DGO) and Dr. Pooja Bansal (MBBS, MS). Our hospital has complete on-site diagnostic facilities including blood tests (pathology lab by Dr. Apoorva Tripathi, MBBS, MD) and ultrasonography (by Dr. Ishant Jatav, MBBS, MD) — so you get diagnosis and treatment all under one roof without running between multiple centers.

Symptoms of PCOD / PCOS

Irregular Periods

Periods that come too early, too late, too heavy, or are missed altogether. The most common symptom.

Excessive Hair Growth

Unwanted hair on face, chin, chest, or abdomen (hirsutism) due to excess androgens.

Acne & Oily Skin

Persistent acne on face, chest, and back that does not respond to regular skincare.

Weight Gain

Unexplained weight gain, especially around the abdomen. Difficulty losing weight despite diet and exercise.

Hair Thinning

Thinning of hair on the scalp, similar to male-pattern baldness.

Dark Skin Patches

Dark, velvety patches on neck, armpits, or groin (acanthosis nigricans), linked to insulin resistance.

Difficulty Getting Pregnant

Irregular or absent ovulation makes it difficult to conceive naturally.

Mood Changes

Mood swings, anxiety, and depression are common in women with PCOD/PCOS.

How PCOD / PCOS Is Diagnosed at R.K. Hospital

1. Clinical Examination

Our gynaecologist (Dr. Veena Pandey or Dr. Pooja Bansal) will take your detailed medical history, menstrual history, and perform a physical examination including checking for signs of excess androgen (acne, hirsutism, hair thinning).

2. Blood Tests (On-Site)

Blood tests are selected from the history and examination. They may help assess androgen-related symptoms, exclude other causes of irregular periods and review metabolic risks. Not every patient needs a full hormone panel. Bring previous reports and ask which tests will change the care plan.

3. Pelvic Ultrasound / Sonography (On-Site)

Ultrasound may be advised when ovarian imaging is relevant to the assessment. Ovarian appearance alone does not diagnose PCOS, and not every patient needs a scan. Adolescents need age-appropriate criteria. Confirm the indication, preparation and appointment with the clinical team.

All under one roof: Consultation, pathology and ultrasound services are available at R.K. Hospital. Call to confirm the required tests, preparation and appointment availability before travelling.

PCOD / PCOS Treatment Options

Healthy habits and follow-up

Discuss a practical eating and activity plan alongside medical care. Healthy habits can help even when weight does not change. The clinician can help set goals that fit symptoms, metabolic health and daily life, without assuming weight loss is needed for everyone.

Hormonal Medication

Oral contraceptive pills to regulate periods and reduce androgen levels. Anti-androgen medications for acne and hirsutism. Progesterone supplements to induce regular periods. Medication is prescribed based on your specific symptoms and goals.

Insulin Sensitizers

Metformin may be prescribed if insulin resistance is present (common in PCOD). It helps improve insulin sensitivity, can aid in weight loss, and may help restore regular ovulation.

Fertility Treatment (If Trying to Conceive)

Ovulation-inducing medications (clomiphene, letrozole) to help you ovulate and conceive. Our gynaecologists will monitor your cycle with ultrasound and guide you through the process.

Surgical Option (Rare Cases)

Surgery is not routine treatment for PCOS. A fertility specialist may discuss procedural options in selected circumstances after reviewing other treatments. Ask why a procedure is being considered and which clinician will coordinate it.

Frequently Asked Questions — PCOD / PCOS Treatment

What is the difference between PCOD and PCOS?▾
PCOD is a commonly used term in searches and consultations, but it should not be assumed to mean a separate mild disease. PCOS is a hormonal and metabolic condition. Diagnosis uses clinical criteria after other causes are excluded; cysts are not required. A clinician interprets the cycle pattern, androgen-related symptoms and indicated tests together.
What are the symptoms of PCOD/PCOS?▾
Common symptoms include: irregular periods (mahina aana-jaana), heavy or prolonged periods, acne and oily skin, excessive facial/body hair (hirsutism), hair thinning on scalp, weight gain (especially around abdomen), difficulty losing weight, dark patches on skin (acanthosis nigricans), difficulty getting pregnant, and mood swings/depression. If symptoms persist or affect daily life, consult our gynaecologists at R.K. Hospital for evaluation.
How is PCOD/PCOS diagnosed?▾
At R.K. Hospital, PCOD/PCOS is diagnosed through: (1) Clinical history and examination by our gynaecologist, (2) Targeted blood tests selected according to symptoms, age and medical history; the clinician may assess androgen levels, exclude other causes and review metabolic health - done at our pathology lab by Dr. Apoorva Tripathi (MBBS, MD), (3) Ultrasound when ovarian imaging is indicated. Cysts are not required for diagnosis, and a scan alone is insufficient. Confirm which tests are needed and their availability before attending.
Can PCOD be cured completely?▾
PCOD cannot be "cured" in the traditional sense, but it can be effectively managed with proper treatment to improve symptoms and reduce longer-term health risks. Many women with PCOD lead completely normal lives with regular periods, healthy weight, clear skin, and successful pregnancies through a combination of lifestyle changes, medication, and regular monitoring. Early diagnosis and consistent treatment are key.
Which doctors treat PCOD at R.K. Hospital?▾
PCOD/PCOS is treated by our experienced gynaecologists: Dr. Veena Pandey (MBBS, DGO) and Dr. Pooja Bansal (MBBS, MS). Both are experienced in diagnosing and managing PCOD/PCOS, irregular periods, hormonal imbalances, and fertility issues. They provide compassionate, private consultations for women of all ages. OPD: Mon-Sat 9 AM - 12 PM, 5:30 PM - 9 PM; Sunday 10 AM - 1 PM. Call 0755-4260605.
Does PCOD affect pregnancy?▾
PCOD/PCOS is one of the leading causes of difficulty in getting pregnant (infertility) because it affects ovulation. However, many women with PCOD successfully conceive with proper treatment. Treatment options include lifestyle modifications (weight loss can restore ovulation), ovulation-inducing medications (like clomiphene or letrozole), hormonal treatment, and in some cases, laparoscopic ovarian drilling. Our gynaecologists will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific situation.

Part of the pcos: symptoms, diagnosis and a long-term plan guide

From this question to a practical consultation

Use this guide to prepare the history for a discussion about pcos. Record when the concern began, what has changed and how it affects daily activities. Bring reports and prescriptions already available; you can ask which further tests would help before arranging more investigations.

At the visit, ask what the clinician thinks is most likely and which findings support that view. If the diagnosis remains uncertain, ask how it will be clarified and which changes should prompt earlier assessment. A clear next step is more useful than collecting several possible labels from online searches.

Before leaving, confirm the purpose of each prescribed treatment, the follow-up date and who will communicate results. Keep that plan with your symptom record so a review can compare progress. Tell the clinician if the plan is difficult to follow because of work, costs, side effects or care responsibilities.

The care pathway: PCOS
  1. 1

    Review cycle and androgen symptoms

  2. 2

    Exclude other causes using suitable criteria

  3. 3

    Set menstrual, metabolic or fertility goals

  4. 4

    Agree treatment and long-term review

The sequence explains planned care. Urgent symptoms require prompt assessment and may change this pathway.

The assessment before a treatment decision

Adult diagnosis commonly considers ovulatory disturbance, androgen excess and ovarian appearance, after other causes are excluded. Not every patient needs every test or a scan. A clinician may check metabolic risks as well as reproductive symptoms.

Medical guidance: WHO: Polycystic ovary syndrome · Monash University: International evidence-based PCOS guideline

How can I prepare for an assessment of these symptoms?

Bring a symptom timeline, relevant reports, current prescriptions and your main questions. Ask how the diagnosis will be assessed, whether further tests are needed, what follow-up is planned and which changes require earlier care.
