PCOS One of the most valuable experiences of life is to be a parent, to nurture and love our own. However, infertility is an issue that many people struggle with in this journey. There are around 48.5 million, or 15% of couples who battle with infertility. One of the leading causes of anovulatory infertility is Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome or PCOS in women. It is a hormonal disorder that disrupts normal uterine functions including the ability to conceive. PCOS affects women of reproductive age and is prevalent throughout the world. It is a common condition that affects 5%-20% of women worldwide.
