Nova IVF Fertility, Madurai, has observed a rise in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) cases among women seeking fertility treatment, with specialists emphasizing the urgent need for early diagnosis and comprehensive lifestyle management to improve fertility outcomes in the region.
Fertility specialists at Nova IVF Madurai report that 25-30% of women visiting their center for fertility consultation are diagnosed with PCOS, highlighting the growing prevalence of this hormonal condition across both urban and rural communities in Tamil Nadu, with lifestyle factors playing a significant role in the condition's development. The condition, which affects hormone levels and ovulation, has become a leading cause of female infertility in the region.
Studies report that genetically people in this region, are more prone to health issues such as PCOS. It means that even a moderate lifestyle trigger can more easily lead to full-blown PCOS. Nowadays people are consuming more of refined carbohydrates and sugary foods. Sedentary lifestyle is also a concern which can lead to issues like hormonal imbalance and insulin resistance. Certain deficiencies such as Vitamin D deficiency can also impact hormonal health and impact conditions such as PCOS.
Dr.Scindiya M, Fertility Specialist, Nova IVF Fertility, Madurai, said, "Many young women dismiss irregular periods as normal, but this delay in diagnosis often leads to greater challenges with infertility. Whether lean or obese, PCOS patients require timely medical guidance, lifestyle modification, and in some cases, assisted reproductive techniques. We are seeing cases not just in urban areas, but increasingly in rural populations as well, where dietary changes and reduced, physical activity have contributed to this trend."
The fertility specialist emphasized that PCOS significantly impacts a woman's ability to produce quality eggs during IVF treatment, requiring specialized counselling and tailored treatment approaches. However, positive lifestyle interventions can make a substantial difference in treatment outcomes. "Weight loss of even 10% can sometimes normalize menstrual cycles, and both diet and regular exercise play a crucial role in PCOS management.We strongly recommend that even teenage girls showing early symptoms should undergo ultrasound or hormone tests to prevent complications later," added Dr.Scindiya M
Early intervention and lifestyle modifications can significantly improve fertility outcomes, while regular monitoring from adolescence can prevent long-term fertility complications. Comprehensive treatment approaches combining medication, lifestyle changes, and assisted reproductive techniques show the most promising results for patients.Any woman experiencing irregular periods married or unmarried should consult a gynaecologist early. With proper lifestyle management, medication, and timely care, fertility outcomes can improve significantly. We also do PCOS screening for women coming in with infertility issues. We have personalised PCOS clinics for women with PCOS battling infertility, where we help manage fertility issues related to polycystic ovary syndrome, providing expert diagnosis, personalized treatment plans, and support for conception. Most women with PCOS can use their own eggs and their partner's sperm for IVF treatment, known as a self-cycle, using the couple's own gametes" emphasized Dr.Scindiya M
