Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome

Our physicians have a special interest and advanced expertise in treating patients with polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS), formerly known as PCOS, a common hormonal disorder that causes an overproduction of androgen along with the formation of multiple cysts on the ovaries. Potential symptoms of PMOS include abnormal menstrual cycles, infertility, pelvic pain, weight gain, severe acne, excessive facial or body hair and certain skin changes. Depending on your specific condition, your doctor may recommend a combination of treatments for polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome. These might include lifestyle changes such as a regular exercise routine and weight management program, birth control medication to regulate hormones or ovulation-stimulating medications if you are trying to get pregnant.
