Polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS, is a syndrome in which there is hormonal imbalance in the body. Due to the excessive amount of hormones in the body, there can be overproduction of eggs, which turn into cysts which latch onto the ovaries permanently.

This condition can lead to a variety of issues, from acne and weight gain, to menstrual cramps and infertility. So, not many people talk about having this syndrome, and people tend to brush it under the carpet instead of sharing awareness. However, this PCOS month, we plan to change that and start a conversation about PCOS. We can lift the veil of stigma from this condition by taking a cue from the celebrities who opened up about having PCOS, and in doing so, busted some common misconceptions people have about how it works.
